This anatomically contoured Locking Compression Plate (LCP) addresses complex fractures of the distal femur by providing throughout the plate, the flexibility of both locking and conventional plating techniques. Combi holes in the limited-contact shaft also enable axial compression.
Key Features & Benefits
- Stability of a fixed-angle construct with locking screws, while also offering standard compression plating with conventional screws
- Superior fixation in osteopenic bone and stable bridging over badly comminuted fractures
- Improved preservation of blood supply to the bone, because fixation does not rely on plate/bone compression
- Unicortical fixation of periprosthetic fractures with special Periprosthetic Locking Screws
- Unique Combi holes in the shaft that allow both axial compression and the choice of locking or nonlocking screws at each screw hole
Indications
- Buttressing of multifragmentary distal femur fractures
- Supracondylar fractures
- Intra-articular and extra-articular condylar fractures
- Malunions and nonunions of the distal femur
- Periprosthetic fractures, fractures in osteopenic bone and osteotomies of the femur
