Locking Plate Systems

Locking Plate System is a type of internal fixation device in orthopedic surgery that belongs to the broader category of fracture fixation systems, distinguished by its use of threaded screws that lock into place with a fixed angle relative to the plate, thereby providing angular stability and resistance to shear forces without requiring direct bone-to-plate compression.
