2.0 MM LCP ROTATION CORRECTION PLATE
The 2.0 MM LCP Rotation Correction Plate is a specialized orthopedic implant designed to address rotational deformities or instabilities in bone fractures or reconstructions. Here are its specifications and common uses:
Specification
- Material: Typically made from titanium alloy, known for its strength, biocompatibility, and resistance to corrosion.
- Thickness: The plate has a thickness of 2.0 millimeters, striking a balance between strength and minimal invasiveness.
- Plate Design: The rotation correction plate is designed with a specific shape and configuration to allow for correction of rotational deformities. It may feature multiple screw holes and slots, as well as variable angles or hinges, to accommodate different correction techniques and anatomical variations.
- Surface Finish: The surface of the plate may be treated to promote osseointegration, facilitating bone healing and integration with the implant.
- Variable Angle Screw Holes: These plates often feature screw holes with variable angles, allowing surgeons flexibility in screw placement to achieve optimal correction of rotational deformities.
Uses
- Fracture Correction: Rotation correction plates are used to stabilize and correct fractures, particularly those involving long bones such as the femur, tibia, or humerus, where rotational malalignment is present.
- Deformity Correction: In cases of congenital or acquired rotational deformities, such as malunions or nonunions, these plates can be used to realign the bone and restore proper anatomical alignment.
- Joint Reconstruction: Rotation correction plates may also be utilized in joint reconstruction surgeries, such as corrective osteotomies around the knee or ankle, to address rotational instability or malalignment.
- Trauma Surgery: In traumatic injuries where rotational instability or deformity is present, rotation correction plates provide stable fixation and support during the healing process.
- Orthopedic Corrections: These plates can be used in various orthopedic corrections, including limb lengthening procedures, where rotational alignment needs to be carefully controlled and corrected.
Overall, the 2.0 MM LCP Rotation Correction Plate serves as a versatile implant for addressing rotational deformities or instabilities in orthopedic surgeries, offering surgeons the flexibility and precision needed to achieve optimal outcomes for their patients.
