2. Ulna&Radius Locking Compression Plate Features


  1. Locking Mechanism:

    • Locking Screws: These screws lock into the plate, providing a fixed-angle construct which enhances stability, particularly beneficial in osteoporotic or comminuted bone where conventional screws might not hold as well.


  2. Anatomical Contouring:

    • Pre-Contoured Design: Plates are often pre-contoured to match the natural shape of the ulna and radius, reducing the need for intraoperative bending and ensuring a better anatomical fit.


  3. Combination Holes:

    • Dynamic Compression and Locking: Combination holes allow for both dynamic compression using standard screws and fixed-angle stability using locking screws. This provides flexibility in fixation techniques.


  4. Multiple Screw Options:

    • Multi-Directional Screws: Allows for screws to be placed at different angles, providing versatile and secure fixation in various fracture patterns.


  5. Material:

    • Stainless Steel or Titanium: Plates are typically made from high-strength materials like stainless steel or titanium, which are biocompatible and resistant to corrosion, ensuring durability and compatibility with the body.


  6. Low Profile Design:

    • Reduced Profile: The plates are designed to be low profile to minimize soft tissue irritation and reduce the risk of hardware prominence post-surgery.


  7. Versatile Lengths and Sizes:

    • Range of Sizes: Available in various lengths and sizes to accommodate different fracture types and patient anatomies.


  8. Radiolucent Properties:

    • Radiolucent Markers: Some plates may include radiolucent markers to aid in intraoperative imaging and precise placement.


  9. Self-Tapping Screws:

    • Ease of Use: Screws are often self-tapping, which facilitates insertion and reduces surgical time.


  10. Enhanced Stability:

    • Fixed-Angle Stability: The locking mechanism provides stable fixation that is less dependent on bone quality, making it ideal for use in osteoporotic bones.


  11. Minimally Invasive Options:

      1. MIPO Technique: Some LCPs are designed to be used with minimally invasive percutaneous osteosynthesis (MIPO) techniques, which reduce soft tissue damage and promote faster recovery.

Applications

  • Diaphyseal Fractures: Mid-shaft fractures of the ulna and radius.

  • Metaphyseal Fractures: Fractures near the wrist or elbow.

  • Comminuted Fractures: Multi-fragmentary fractures.

  • Pathological Fractures: Fractures in bones weakened by disease.

  • Osteoporotic Bone: Providing stable fixation in patients with poor bone quality.


These features collectively make the Ulna & Radius Locking Compression Plate an effective solution for a variety of forearm fractures, promoting proper alignment and healing while minimizing complications.


3.Ulna&Radius Locking Compression Plate Indications


●Humer fractures, including simple, comminuted, and osteoporotic fractures.

●Ankle fractures with involvement of the humer.

●Syndesmotic injuries requiring stabilization.

●Fractures that extend into the ankle joint (intra-articular fractures).

7.Humeral Locking Compression PlateLocking Plate FAQ


(1).What is Humeral Locking Compression Plate?


Humeral Locking Compression Plate is a specialized orthopedic implant designed to stabilize fractures in the humeral. It uses locking screws to create a fixed-angle construct, providing stable and reliable fixation, especially in complex or osteoporotic fractures.


(2).When is Humeral Locking Compression Plate used?


The humeral Locking Compression Plate is used for various types of humeral fractures, including:

●Comminuted fractures (multiple fragments).

●Intra-articular fractures (involving the joint surface).

●Extra-articular fractures (not involving the joint surface).

●Periprosthetic fractures (around a joint prosthesis).

●Osteoporotic fractures (in patients with weakened bone).


(3).What are the benefits of using a Humeral Locking Compression?


●Stable Fixation: Humeral Locking screws provide a fixed-angle construct, ensuring stable fixation even in weak bone.

●Anatomic Design: The plate is pre-contoured to match the natural anatomy of the humeral, reducing the need for intraoperative bending and minimizing soft tissue irritation.

●Versatility: Suitable for various fracture patterns and patient anatomies.

●Early Mobilization: The stability of the fixation allows for early weight-bearing and rehabilitation, promoting faster recovery.

●Reduced Complications: The design reduces the risk of malunion (improper healing) and non-union (failure to heal).


(4).How is the Humeral Locking Compression Plate surgically implanted?


●Preoperative Planning: Radiographic assessment to understand the fracture pattern and plan the surgery.

●Patient Positioning: Typically supine, with the arm accessible.

●Incision and Exposure: A lateral incision over the distal humeral, exposing the fracture site.

●Fracture Reduction: Anatomically reduce the fracture using clamps and guide wires.

●Plate Placement: Position the pre-contoured plate along the lateral aspect of the humeral.

●Screw Fixation: Insert locking screws through the plate holes into the bone.

●Intraoperative Imaging: Use fluoroscopy to ensure proper alignment and fixation.

●Closure: Close soft tissues and skin in layers.


(5).What postoperative care is required after Humeral Locking Compression Plate implantation?


●Immobilization: Initially, a splint or brace may be used to protect the surgical site.

●Weight-bearing: Recommendations vary based on fracture stability and patient condition; gradual weight-bearing is typically encouraged.

●Rehabilitation: Physical therapy to restore function, strength, and range of motion.

●Follow-up: Regular X-rays to monitor fracture healing and alignment.


(6).What are the risks or complications associated with Humeral Locking Compression Plate surgery?


●Infection: As with any surgical procedure, there is a risk of infection.

●Implant Failure: Rarely, the plate or screws may fail, particularly if the bone quality is poor.

●Non-union or Malunion: The fracture may not heal properly, necessitating further intervention.

●Soft Tissue Irritation: The implant may cause irritation to surrounding soft tissues, though this is minimized with a low-profile design.


(7).How long does it take to recover from Humeral Locking Compression Plate surgery?


Recovery time varies depending on the severity of the fracture, patient health, and adherence to rehabilitation protocols. Generally, patients can expect to begin weight-bearing within a few weeks, with complete recovery and return to normal activities taking several months.


(8).Are there alternatives to using a Humeral Locking Compression Plate?


Alternative treatments include:

●Intramedullary Nails: Rods inserted into the bone marrow canal.

●External Fixation: Metal frames outside the body to stabilize the fracture.

●Non-locking Plates and Screws: Traditional methods without the fixed-angle construct.

●Conservative Management: For less severe fractures, non-surgical treatment with casting or bracing may be considered.


Each treatment option has specific indications and is chosen based on the individual patient's needs and fracture characteristics.
