Patent

CA 2753200

Among other things, there is disclosed an orthopedic plate system for use in supporting or stabilizing long bones in pediatric patients. The plate includes a substantially planar portion for placement along a diaphysis of a long bone and a portion curved out of the plane of the planar portion for placement along at least part of a metaphysis of the long bone. Holes through the plate are provided for screws in both the curved and planar portions, which hold the plate to the long bone. The holes are substan-tially parallel to each other and substantially perpendicular to the plane of the planar portion. Screws through the holes and into the bone are substantially parallel to an epiphyseal plate of the long bone, so that attachment of the plate to the bone does not ad-versely affect growth of the long bone.

L'invention concerne, entre autres choses, un système de plaque orthopédique devant être utilisé dans le support ou la stabilisation d'os longs chez des patients en pédiatrie. La plaque comprend une partie sensiblement plane destinée à être positionnée le long d'une diaphyse d'un os long, et une partie incurvée hors du plan de la partie plane devant être positionnée le long d'au moins une partie d'une métaphyse de l'os long. Des trous dans la plaque, qui tiennent la plaque sur l'os long, sont prévus pour des vis dans les parties incurvée et plane. Les trous sont sensiblement parallèles les uns aux autres et sensiblement perpendiculaires au plan de la partie plane. Les vis dans les trous et dans l'os sont sensiblement parallèles à une plaque pour l'épiphyse de l'os long, de façon que la fixation de la plaque à l'os n'aie pas d'incidence défavorable sur la croissance de l'os long.
