A fracture fixation plate (102) includes a set of threaded peg holes adapted to individually receive fixation pegs (106, 108) therethrough and non-threaded alignment holes (150) having a relatively smaller diameter than the peg holes and preferably sized to closely receive a K-wire. The alignment holes are located between the peg holes. One alignment hole is configured for aligning the plate during an osteotomy procedure, while other alignment holes are configured for use after fracture reduction and receive K-wires to temporarily stabilize the fracture and secure the plate to the bone and determine whether pegs inserted through adjacent respective peg holes will be properly located before drilling relatively larger holes for such pegs.

Une plaque de fixation d'une fracture (102) comprend une série de trous de pédonne taraudés, adaptés pour recevoir individuellement des chevilles de fixation (106, 108), et des trous d'alignement non taraudés (150), de diamètre relativement plus petit que les trous de pédonne et dimensionnés pour recevoir, à jeu serré, un fil K. Les trous d'alignement sont disposés entre les trous de pédonne. Un trou d'alignement est configuré de manière à assurer l'alignement de la plaque lors d'un processus d'ostéotomie, tandis que d'autres trous d'alignement sont configurés pour l'utilisation après réduction de la fracture et pour recevoir des fils K, en vue de stabiliser temporairement la fracture et fixer la plaque à l'os, et déterminer si des chevilles insérées dans les trous de pédonne respectifs adjacents sont disposées correctement avant de percer des trous relativement plus grands pour de tels chevilles.
