The 4.5 mm L – Buttress Plate is a specialized orthopedic implant designed for the fixation of periarticular and metaphyseal fractures. Its L-shaped design provides strong buttress support to prevent fragment displacement, while ensuring stable fixation. Available in left and right variants, it offers precise anatomical fit and is manufactured from stainless steel or titanium for durability and biocompatibility
The 4.5 mm L – Buttress Plate is a high-performance orthopedic implant engineered for the effective management of complex fractures, particularly in periarticular regions such as the proximal tibia, distal femur, and other metaphyseal areas. Its distinctive L-shaped design allows it to function as a buttress, supporting bone fragments and preventing their displacement under axial and shear forces.
This plate is especially useful in fractures involving joint surfaces, where maintaining alignment and stability is critical for proper healing and restoration of function. The buttress mechanism helps preserve the anatomical structure by counteracting forces that could otherwise lead to collapse or malalignment.
