The Proximal Femur Locking Plate Left/Right (4.5 / 5.0mm) is an advanced orthopedic fixation system used for treatment of fractures involving the upper femur near the hip joint. The anatomically pre-contoured design ensures accurate fit along the proximal femur, providing stable fixation, proper alignment, and restoration of hip biomechanics.
This implant is commonly used for complex proximal femur fractures, including intertrochanteric, subtrochanteric, comminuted, and osteoporotic fracture patterns. The design provides strong biomechanical support in a high load-bearing region, helping maintain stability during healing and allowing early mobilization.
The locking compression plate (LCP) system allows 4.5mm and 5.0mm locking screws to securely engage within the plate holes, forming a fixed-angle construct that enhances stability, reduces screw loosening, and maintains fracture reduction even in weak or osteoporotic bone.
The plate is available in left and right anatomical configurations, ensuring proper adaptation to patient-specific femoral anatomy. Multiple hole options allow flexibility in fixation depending on fracture type and surgical requirements.
Manufactured from premium surgical-grade stainless steel or titanium (depending on configuration), the implant offers excellent strength, corrosion resistance, fatigue resistance, and long-term biocompatibility. Precision-engineered screw holes ensure accurate placement and reliable intraoperative performance.
This system is widely used in orthopedic trauma surgery and veterinary orthopedic procedures for proximal femur fracture management.
The implant is fully sterilizable and supplied in professional surgical packaging for safe handling and efficient operating room workflow.
