The Eight Plate Growth Modulation Set with 4mm Cannulated Screws (Titanium) is a specialized orthopedic implant system used for guided growth correction in children and adolescents. It is commonly used in procedures involving angular deformities such as genu valgum (knock-knee) and genu varum (bow-leg).
The eight plate functions as a tension-band plate that allows controlled growth modulation by temporarily restricting one side of the growth plate (physis), enabling gradual correction of limb alignment as the child grows. This minimally invasive technique helps achieve natural correction without the need for osteotomy in many cases.
The included 4mm cannulated titanium screws allow accurate placement over guide wires, ensuring precise fixation and reduced surgical error. The cannulated design enhances surgical accuracy and minimizes soft tissue trauma during implantation.
Manufactured from premium medical-grade titanium, the system offers excellent biocompatibility, corrosion resistance, and long-term safety. The low-profile design of the plate helps reduce soft tissue irritation while maintaining strong mechanical support.
This system is widely used in pediatric orthopedic surgery for growth modulation, limb alignment correction, and deformity management. It is considered a safe and effective alternative to more invasive corrective procedures in growing patients.
The implants are fully sterilizable and supplied in professional surgical packaging for safe handling and efficient operating room use.

FAQs
Q1: What is the Eight Plate used for?
It is used for correcting limb deformities in growing children.
Q2: How does growth modulation work?
It temporarily restricts one side of the growth plate to guide bone growth.
Q3: What are cannulated screws?
They are hollow screws inserted over a guide wire for accuracy.
