A bone plate having a first, bone-facing surface and an opposing second surface has an elongate shaft portion and a head portion that is shorter and wider in comparison thereto, with at least one through hole extending through the bone plate from the first surface to the second surface in the shaft portion. The through hole comprises a variable-angle portion with a hole axis configured to receive a threaded head of a locking screw therein at a desired angle within a permitted range of angulation relative to the hole axis. The second surface has at least one depression which extends therein along a portion of the second surface between the side wall and the through hole, the depression extending about a periphery of the through hole.具有第一、向骨表面以及相反第二表面的骨板,其具有延長軸件部分以及與之相較之下更短且更寬的頭部分,在該軸件部分中的至少一個穿孔從該第一表面延伸通過該骨板至該第二表面。該穿孔包含具有孔軸的可變角度部分,該可變角度部分被組態以相對於該孔軸之允許角度形成範圍內的希望角度容納鎖定螺釘的螺紋頭於其中。第二表面具有至少一個凹陷,該凹陷沿著該邊牆與該穿孔之間之該第二表面的一部分在其中延伸,該凹陷繞著該穿孔之週邊延伸。
