Overview
The Proximal Femur Locking Plate 5.0 mm is a high-strength orthopedic implant designed to provide secure fixation for fractures in the proximal femur, including intertrochanteric and subtrochanteric fractures, as well as femoral neck fractures. Engineered with precision, this plate offers excellent mechanical stability, enhancing fracture alignment and reducing the risk of non-union or misalignment during the healing process. Made from premium-grade titanium or stainless steel, the Proximal Femur Locking Plate 6.0 mm ensures long-lasting durability, making it ideal for use in both traumatic fractures and post-operative stabilization.
Key Features
-
5.0 mm Locking System: The 6.0 mm locking holes are specifically designed for secure screw placement, providing superior fixation in both cortical and cancellous bone. The locking mechanism ensures that the screws are firmly anchored in place, reducing the risk of screw loosening, which is especially beneficial in osteoporotic bone or compromised bone quality.
-
Anatomical Contouring: The plate is anatomically contoured to fit the natural shape of the proximal femur, ensuring a precise fit and reducing the risk of malalignment during surgery. This anatomical design helps optimize fracture stabilization, particularly in complex fractures, periarticular fractures, or when performing osteotomies.
-
High-Strength Materials: Crafted from high-quality titanium alloy or stainless steel, the Proximal Femur Locking Plate 6.0 mm provides exceptional strength while maintaining a lightweight profile. These materials are resistant to corrosion and fatigue, ensuring that the plate remains strong and reliable throughout the healing process.
-
Locking Screw Mechanism: The plate utilizes a locking screw design, which offers superior stability by securing the screws to the plate, preventing loosening over time. This locking mechanism is particularly useful for patients with poor bone quality, where traditional non-locking screws may not provide the necessary support.
-
Versatile Application: The plate is suitable for a variety of fractures in the proximal femur, including intertrochanteric fractures, femoral neck fractures, and subtrochanteric fractures. It can also be used in conjunction with intramedullary nails for enhanced fixation and stability in complex fracture scenarios.
-
Minimally Invasive Surgical Approach: The design of the plate supports a minimally invasive surgical technique, which minimizes soft tissue disruption, reduces the risk of infection, and promotes faster recovery. This approach is beneficial for both the patient and the surgical team, as it leads to less post-operative pain and a quicker return to mobility.
Indications for Use
-
Intertrochanteric fractures of the femur
-
Subtrochanteric fractures
-
Femoral neck fractures
-
Periarticular fractures of the proximal femur
-
Post-operative stabilization of femoral osteotomies
-
Osteoporotic fractures of the proximal femur
-
Fractures requiring stable internal fixation with locking screws
Benefits
-
Enhanced Stability and Fixation: The 5.0 mm locking screw system provides stable, rigid fixation, ensuring that the fracture remains well-aligned during the healing process. This reduces the risk of screw loosening or migration over time, providing better long-term fracture stabilization.
-
Improved Healing: The anatomical contour of the plate ensures optimal alignment and load distribution, which accelerates the healing process and reduces the risk of complications such as non-union or malunion.
-
Minimized Soft Tissue Disruption: The plate’s design is optimized for a minimally invasive surgical approach, reducing surgical trauma, lowering infection risks, and leading to a faster recovery time for patients.
-
Versatile Use: With its ability to treat a variety of fracture types, including complex intertrochanteric and subtrochanteric fractures, the Proximal Femur Locking Plate 6.0 mm offers a versatile solution for orthopedic surgeons treating fractures of the proximal femur.
-
Long-Term Durability: Made from premium titanium or stainless steel, the plate is built to withstand long-term mechanical stress, ensuring durability and reliable performance throughout the fracture healing process.
