Fixing system for treating fracture of tibial plateau

Abstract

The invention discloses a fixing system for treating fracture of tibial plateau. The fixing system comprises a locking steel plate and a plurality of screws, wherein the locking steel plate is externally arranged on a fracture part of the tibial plateau to fix the fractured tibial plateau; the locking steel plate is in an integral structure and comprises an opening annular plate and a straight plate; the opening annular plate is connected to one end of the straight plate; the opening annular plate circularly supports the fracture part of the tibial plateau; the other end of the straight plate is far away from the fracture part of the tibial plateau to support the far end of the fracture part of the tibial plateau; a plurality of thread holes are formed on the opening annular plate and the straight plate; and the screws are screwed into corresponding thread holes to fix and the opening annular plate and the straight plate. The fixing plate can treat seriously-damaged fractures of an opening tibial plateau or a closed tibial plateau soft tissues; infection or necrotic problems can be avoided; enough mechanical stability can be provided; the fixing system is light and practical as well as economic; and patient life can be facilitated and patient economic burden can be reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of orthopedic medical devices, and more particularly relates to a fixation system for treating tibial plateau fractures. Background technique [0002] In medical operations, for open fractures or fractures with severe soft tissue damage in the operation area, the traditional treatment method of internal fixation has a high incidence of complications such as postoperative infection and flap necrosis; These risks can be avoided, but there are disadvantages such as large size and heavy weight, which bring a lot of inconvenience to patients. [0003] Some studies have pointed out that the external locking plate has the characteristics of good mechanical stability, and its volume is smaller than that of the external support, which is convenient for patients' daily life, such as sleeping, dressing, and walking on the uninjured limb. Therefore, the external locking plate came into being. The existing external locking plate ...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, it has been found in clinical practice that the tibial plateau fracture is a fracture involving the articular surface of the proximal tibia, the fracture type is more complex, and it is more difficult to treat when combined with soft tissue injury

However, tibial plateau fractures often involve the medial and lateral sides of the tibial plateau, even the posteromedial and posterolateral sides, resulting in the inability to apply the existing straight or L-shaped external locking plates during surgical treatment, or the need for multiple external locking plates, so obvious Increased financial burden on patients
