The T Buttress LCP 4.5 / 5.0mm Plates with Screws & Driver is an advanced orthopedic implant system used for fixation of fractures in metaphyseal and periarticular regions where strong buttress support is required. The T-shaped design provides multidirectional stability and is particularly effective in supporting fracture fragments in complex bone surfaces.
This system incorporates locking compression plate (LCP) technology, allowing 4.5mm or 5.0mm locking screws to securely engage within the plate. This creates a fixed-angle construct that enhances stability, maintains fracture reduction, and reduces the risk of screw loosening or implant failure during healing.
The buttress function of the T-plate is especially useful in preventing fragment displacement in areas subjected to shear forces, such as the proximal tibia, distal femur, and other periarticular regions. It helps restore anatomical alignment and supports early functional recovery.
The set includes a dedicated screw driver, ensuring precise screw insertion, secure handling, and improved surgical efficiency. Multiple screw hole configurations allow flexible fixation based on fracture pattern and anatomical requirements.
Manufactured from premium surgical-grade titanium or stainless steel (depending on configuration), the implant offers excellent strength, durability, corrosion resistance, and long-term biocompatibility. Precision-engineered holes ensure accurate placement and reliable surgical performance.
This system is widely used in orthopedic trauma surgery and veterinary orthopedic procedures for complex fracture management.
The set is fully sterilizable and supplied in professional surgical packaging for safe handling and efficient operating room workflow.
