Abstract

See full text

A compression hip screw comprises a plate with a barrel, a lag screw adapted for fixation to a femoral head, a compression screw engageable with the lag screw to retain the plate and barrel attached with the femur and a locking pin to oppose rotation between the barrel and the lag screw. The locking pin is disposed on one side of the barrel to provide a robust structure for the lag screw and enable the barrel to transmit loads developed during the walking mode for the hip.
