Synthes Locking Compression Plate (lcp) System

چکیده
The advent of internal fixation with bone plates and screws represents a tremendous advancement in the methods of fracture fixation. During this era, the emphasis was on anatomic reconstruction and rigid internal fixation. Although these principles are applicable to a great number of fractures, not all can be treated in this manner. In fact, the disruption of the soft tissue envelope required to perform an anatomic reconstruction of a highly comminuted fracture and ensuing disruption of healing potential can contribute to nonunion. Gradually, a shift in philosophy has occurred, and now the emphasis is on preservation of fracture biology, with spatial realignment of the major bone segments; this technique is known as biological osteosynthesis.

A retrospective study of tibial plateau translation following tibial plateau levelling osteotomy stabilisation using three different plate types.
OBJECTIVE To retrospectively evaluate mediolateral translation of the proximal tibial segment (tibial plateau) after tibial plateau levelling osteotomy (TPLO), stabilised with three types of plate. METHOD Pre- and postoperative radiographs of 79 dogs that had TPLO surgery using three different types of plates were reviewed. Two plate types incorporated non-locking screws: Slocum (22 cases) an...

ABSTRACT The objective of this study was to evaluate the outcome in early treatment of subtrochanteric fractures with proximal femur locking compression plate (PF-LCP).The patients included in this study were those with subtrochanteric fractures (AO type 32A-C) treated with PF-LCP (Synthes) between Jan 2009 and Jun 2011. The patient characteristics and details of clinical conditions were obtain...
متن کاملUse of locking plate in combination with dynamic compression plate for repair of tibial fracture in a young horse
Grade 1 open spiral fracture of left tibia in a 1.5 year-old horse was treated using a combination of 4.5 mm locking compression plate (LCP) and a dynamic compression plate applied in a neutralization manner. The open wound was managed postoperatively by regular dressing and lavage. Radiograph at 24 days post-treatment revealed callus formation and at two months complete bridging callus was obs...
متن کاملCASE REPORT Union of an intra-articular distal radius fracture after successive failures of three locking plates: a case report
We report a case of a 30-year old male, who presented with a right distal radius intra-articular fracture complicated by compartment syndrome. He was treated with fasciotomies and fracture fixation with a 3.5 mm LCP (Synthes TM ), followed 7 days later by skin graft. Repeat radiographs 8 weeks later showed a break across the plate at the level of an unfilled screw hole over the fracture. He und...
متن کاملStiffness of the locking compression plate as an external fixator for treating distal tibial fractures: a biomechanics study
BACKGROUND Locking compress plate, as external fixator, is an attractive technique for distal tibial fracture treatment. But it still remains unclear whether the external LCP has sufficient stiffness. Thus, the present study aims to make a comprehensive evaluation of the stiffness of external locking compress plate when it is used as an external fixator in distal tibial fractures treatment. M...
