PROXIMAL femur locked plate

Proximal Femur Locked Plate • Plate Features • The two proximal plate holes are threaded and accept 7.3 mm cannulated screws (locking, conical fully threaded, or conical partially threaded). • The third locking hole is threaded to accept 5.0 mm cannulated locking screws. (Necessity of this screw is fracture configuration dependent and should be identified during preoperative planning.) • The holes in the shaft of the plate are combi-holes that accept 5.0 mm locking screws in the threaded portion of the hole and 4.5 mm cortex screws in the DCU • portion. Anatomically contoured to approximate the lateral aspect of the proximal femur. Plates specifically designed for left or right femur to accommodate average femoral neck antiversion. Plate lengths allow spanning of the entire diaphysis in segmental fracture patterns. Use of locking screws provides the option of an angular stable construct independent of bone quality. • Plate can be tensioned to create a load-sharing construct. • Manufactured of implant quality 316LVM stainless steel and titanium. • The three proximal screw holes are at the following •angles to the plate shaft: • First proximal hole (7.3 mm): 95° • Second proximal hole (7.3 mm): 120° Third proximal hole (5.0 mm): 135°

4.5 mm Proximal Femur Locked Plates EGI-LOC™ Locked plate types • EGI-LOC™ Periarticular Locked Plating System from EgiFix medical offers the advantages of locked plating with theflexibility and benefits of traditional plating in one system. Utilizing both locking and non-locking screws, • EGI-LOC™ offers a construct that resists angular(e.g. varus/valgus) collapse while simultaneously acting as an effective aid to fracture reduction, depression, medial wedge, bicondylar, combinations of lateral wedge and depression, periprosthetic, and fractures with associated shaft fractures.
