Product Overview
The 4.5mm DHS Trochanter Plate is designed for internal fixation of selected proximal femoral fractures using a compatible Dynamic Hip Screw (DHS) system. It serves as the plate component of the DHS construct, providing fixation along the femoral shaft while connecting with the compatible lag screw and barrel assembly. Its trochanteric configuration is intended to provide additional support in selected fractures involving the proximal femur and trochanteric region. The plate helps maintain fracture reduction and alignment during the bone-healing process.
