FORK-LIKE PLATE FOR CARRYING OUT TIBIAL CONDYLE FRACTURE OSTEOSYNTHESIS

FIELD: medical engineering. ^ SUBSTANCE: device has diaphyseal part, having holes, and fixing unit shaped as fork having suprabone teeth parts that embraces metaphysis in diverging like fan. Immersible teeth portions are coplanar, parallel to each other and having circular cross-sections. The fixing unit has two elongated slits having spherical surfaces for placing screws at an angle. Planes passing over slits symmetry axes are arranged in perpendicular to the plane of longitudinal axis of diaphyseal plate part and parallel to the teeth arrangement plane. Slit located close to the teeth has greater length than one being distant from the teeth. The fixing unit has longitudinal opening on its end to enable compression or distraction being done. ^ EFFECT: high reliability of fractured bone fragments fixation; available feature of additional lifted fragment correction during operation. ^ 4 dwg
