“…6 In human, medicine biomechanical and clinical studies show good results with the use of PLS. [7][8][9][10] For the veterinary PLS, no study so far has evaluated the differences in stability of screws placed in monoaxial compared with polyaxial fashion.…”

“…A small cadaveric study comparing less costly one-third tubular plates versus lateral locking plates placed in bridge mode without lag screws in a comminuted distal fibula fracture model found no difference in time to failure between groups. 11 A similar study in sawbones found the opposite result: Locking plates are biomechanically superior to standard one-third tubular plates in comminuted Weber B ankle fractures. 3 However, the external validity of both studies is questionable due to mechanical differences between cadaveric bone/sawbone as compared with biologically active in vivo bone with healing potential and distinct modulus of elasticity.…”
