LCP Broad Curved 4.5/5.0, 1926 holes
For diaphyseal fractures in tall patients with an extended comminuted fracture zone the existing line of LCP broad curved plates 4.5/5.0 from 1218 holes are too short. There is also a need for longer plates due to an increasing number of periprosthetic fractures. The LCP system with its possibility of angular stability aids in treatment of such fractures.
The LCP 4.5/5.0 features a radius of 1500?mm according to the ante curvature of the femoral shaft (similar to LISS/LCP DF and UFN). A bullet nose enables minimal invasive surgery and undercuts preserve the blood supply.
The existing line of LCP broad curved 4.5/5.0 from 1218 holes was extended up to 26 holes (479?mm length). The plates are available in stainless steel and CP titanium.
