The present invention is directed to a bone plate and its method of use for reducing a bone fracture, the bone plate having a longitudinal axis, the bone plate comprising an upper surface, a lower surface, a first hole for engaging a head of a first bone anchor. The first hole is configured and adapted to fix a shaft of the first bone anchor along a first axis. A second hole is spaced apart from the first hole along the longitudinal axis. The second hole is for engaging a head of a second bone anchor, and is configured and adapted to fix a shat of the second bone anchor along a second axis. The first hole and the second hole are configured such that the first axis and the second axis define a single plane and intersect at a point below the lower surface. The shafts of the first and second bone anchors may touch or nearly touch at the point of intersection, such that the first and second bone anchors form a truss.

L'invention se rapporte à une plaque vissée et à son procédé d'utilisation afin de réduire une fracture osseuse. Cette plaque vissée est pourvue d'un axe longitudinal et comprend une surface supérieure, une surface inférieure, et un premier orifice pour venir en prise avec une tête d'un premier ancrage osseux. Le premier orifice est configuré et adapté pour fixer un arbre du premier ancrage osseux le long d'un premier axe. Un second orifice est espacé du premier orifice le long de l'axe longitudinal. Ce second orifice est conçu pour venir en prise avec une tête d'un second ancrage osseux, et est configuré et adapté pour fixer un arbre du second ancrage osseux le long d'un second axe. Le premier orifice et le second orifice sont configurés de manière que le premier axe et le second axe définissent un seul plan et se croisent à un point situé en dessous de la surface inférieure. Les arbres du premier et du second ancrage osseux peuvent se toucher ou se touchent presque au point de croisement, si bien que le premier et le second ancrage osseux forment un treillis.
