What is a Femoral Proximal Hook Locking Plate?

This plate is often used in combination with other components such as cables in orthopaedic cable systems. The design allows for early weight – bearing in some cases, which is important for a patient’s recovery and mobility. It provides stability to the fractured bone, helping to keep the bone fragments in the correct position during the healing process.

How Does a Femoral Proximal Hook Locking Plate Work?

The locking screws are inserted through the plate and into the bone. These screws have a special design that creates a rigid connection between the plate and the bone. They distribute the load evenly, allowing the plate to bear the body’s weight and stresses during movement and helping the fracture to heal without the screws loosening.

Here’s a simplified breakdown of how it works:

A femoral proximal hook locking plate is designed to treat fractures in the proximal femur. Its anatomical design fits the femur’s contour well. The key parts include proximal hooks that connect with the greater trochanter and holes for locking screws which offer very secure fixation.
During surgery, the fractured bone is aligned and the plate is placed over the fracture site. Then, the hooks engage with the bone and locking screws are inserted. This stabilizes the fracture, helping the body heal the bone properly.
It has several advantages. It provides enhanced stability due to the hooks and locking screws. The stable fixation promotes quicker and more reliable healing. It’s versatile for different proximal femur fractures and the surgical procedure is often less invasive. Overall, it acts like a bridge for the broken bone pieces until they heal.
