The invention relates to a bone plate (1) with at least one receiving opening (2) for a bone screw (3) with a screw head (4), wherein the receiving opening (2) has a compression area (5) with a compression contour (6) and a blocking area (7) with a blocking contour (8), wherein the compression contour (6) is designed and arranged in such a way that a rotation of the bone screw (3) in its one screwing-in direction (E) causes a lateral movement of the bone screw (3) in the direction of the blocking area (7). The compression contour (6) is designed as an engagement contour (6), such that the lateral movement can be generated at least partially, in particular completely, by engagement between the engagement contour (6) and a mating contour (9) on the screw head (4) or on a screwing-in tool. The invention further relates to a surgical kit containing at least one such bone plate (1) and at least one bone screw (3) with a screw head (4), which bone screw (3) can be inserted into at least one of the receiving openings (2) of the bone plate (1).
