What is an Osteotomy Locking System?

An Osteotomy Locking System is a set of implants for osteotomy. It features locking plates and screws. The plates are designed to fit the bone precisely and attach firmly. The screws’ unique locking design offers enhanced stability over traditional methods. This minimizes bone fragment movement, promotes healing, may reduce recovery time and complication risks, and gives more surgical flexibility.

An Osteotomy Locking System offers several advantages over traditional methods:

Enhanced Stability: Their locking plates and screws are designed for a more secure hold on bone fragments. This cuts down the chance of displacement and speeds up healing. For example, in a complex tibial osteotomy, the stable fixation helps the bone knit together more efficiently.

Minimally Invasive: Requiring smaller incisions than traditional open surgery means less tissue damage. This often leads to a shorter recovery. In cases like a femoral osteotomy, the reduced trauma can have patients back on their feet sooner.

Precise Control: The locking mechanism gives surgeons exact control over bone fragment alignment and position. This results in a more reliable outcome.

Improved Patient Outcomes: The combination of increased stability and minimally invasive features leads to less pain, quicker healing, and happier patients.

These systems have different implant types such as locking plates, screws, and intramedullary nails. The choice depends on the osteotomy’s location and complexity.

How Does an Osteotomy Locking System Work?

The locking mechanism is crucial. It creates a fixed-angle construct that resists forces such as shear and torsion, which are common during the healing process. This enhanced stability allows for better bone healing as it provides a stable environment for the formation of new bone tissue.

Enhanced Stability: The secure fixation minimizes the chances of bone fragments moving, facilitating quicker healing.
Minimally Invasive: Smaller incisions mean less tissue damage, leading to faster recovery and less pain.
Precise Control: Surgeons can accurately control bone alignment and fragment position, enhancing surgical results.
Improved Patient Outcomes: Patients have less pain, heal faster, and are more satisfied due to the system’s features.
