Zusammenfassung:An orthopedic plate has a first end and a second end each including a locking screw hole that receives a locking screw and spaced from that hole is a closed compression housing that extends from the bone-facing side of the plate and which receives a compression screw that forms an angle of from about 10° to about 70° with a longitudinal axis of the plate. The first and second compression housings are offset from each other and have opposing openings that face toward each other so as to allow the screws projecting therethrough to have crossing directions.
