摘要:
An orthopedic plate system for use in supporting or stabilizing long bones in pediatric patients. The plate (20) includes a substantially planar portion (22) for placement along a diaphysis of a long bone and a portion curved out (24) of the plane of the planar portion for placement along at least part of a metaphysis of the long bone. Holes through the plate are provided for screws in both the curved and planar portions, which hold the plate to the long bone. The holes are substantially parallel to each other and substantially perpendicular to the plane of the planar portion. Screws through the holes and into the bone are substantially parallel to an epiphyseal plate of the long bone, so that attachment of the plate to the bone does not adversely affect growth of the long bone.
