Angled Blade & Pediatric Plates

Angled blade plates and pediatric plates are two types of surgical implants used to fix fractures. Angled blade plates are typically used to fix fractures in the proximal femur, which is the upper part of the thighbone. Pediatric plates are typically used to fix fractures in children.

Angled blade plates have a blade that is inserted into the femoral neck. The blade provides compression across the fracture site, which helps to promote healing. Angled blade plates are typically used to treat intertrochanteric fractures, which are fractures that occur in the area between the femoral neck and the femoral shaft.

Pediatric angled plates are designed to be used in children. They are typically made of titanium or stainless steel and come in a variety of sizes and shapes to accommodate different fracture patterns. Pediatric angled plates are typically used to treat fractures and deformities in the femur.
