2.0 MM MICRO RECON PLATE
The 2.0 MM Micro Recon Plate is a specialized orthopedic implant designed for micro-reconstructive surgeries, particularly in cases involving small bones and delicate procedures. Here are its specifications and common uses:
Specification
- Material: Typically constructed from titanium alloy, chosen for its strength, biocompatibility, and resistance to corrosion.
- Thickness: The plate has a thickness of 2.0 millimeters, which allows for minimal invasiveness while providing adequate stability for small bone fixation.
- Plate Design: The micro recon plate is designed to be low-profile and contoured to match the anatomy of small bones. It may feature a variety of shapes and sizes, including straight plates, T-shaped plates, Y-shaped plates, or others, depending on the specific surgical needs.
- Screw Holes: Multiple screw holes are present along the length of the plate, allowing for versatile fixation options to stabilize bone fragments securely.
- Surface Finish: The surface of the plate may be treated to promote osseointegration, facilitating bone healing and integration with the implant.
Uses
- Hand and Foot Surgery: Micro recon plates are commonly used in surgeries involving the small bones of the hands and feet, such as metacarpals, metatarsals, and phalanges. They are particularly useful in treating fractures, deformities, or joint fusions in these areas.
- Maxillofacial Surgery: In reconstructive surgeries of the face and jaw, micro recon plates can be utilized to stabilize fractures, correct deformities, or support bone grafts in small facial bones.
- Pediatric Orthopedics: Due to their small size and low profile, micro recon plates are suitable for use in pediatric orthopedic surgeries, where preserving growth plates and minimizing disruption to bone development is essential.
- Sports Injuries: Micro recon plates play a critical role in treating sports-related injuries involving small bones, such as fractures of the wrist, ankle, or hand, where precise fixation is required to restore function and mobility.
- Trauma Surgery: In traumatic injuries involving small bones, micro recon plates provide stable fixation and support during the healing process, helping to promote proper bone alignment and union.
Overall, the 2.0 MM Micro Recon Plate offers surgeons a reliable and versatile tool for addressing fractures, deformities, and reconstructions in small bones, with the aim of restoring function and mobility to patients while minimizing surgical invasiveness and postoperative discomfort.
