Bone fixation device and method
摘要:
An apparatus and method of reducing and fixating bone fragments during osteosynthesis is disclosed. An internal fixation plate has first and second arms forming an acute angle. Attachment locations adapted to secure the plate to bone are located at distal portions of the respective arms. A third attachment location is located intermediate the first and second attachment locations. The arms have both a rigid retainer portion to assist in aligning opposing bone fragments and a flexible portion that desirably conforms to the surface of the bone to which it is to be fastened without requiring a surgeon to attempt to bend the plate prior to fastening it to the bone. A method is described for using the plate in combination with a tension-wire method that uses monocortical screws with stainless-steel wire to reduce and fixate a fracture.
