Abstract

See full text

For fixation of an oblique fracture in a long bone, a fixation plate is placed along the bone across the fracture and tabs extending outwardly from the plate engage the bone at upper and lower surfaces respectively of the proximal and distal fragments of the bone. By applying compressive force to the bone by the tabs, the fragments are subjected to compression force across the fracture and to a torque which opposes bone shortening.
