“…Conventional bone plates rely on friction between the plate and the bone that is generated by compression of the screw head on the bone plate. Failure of conventional plates is often attributed to screw loosening and axial pull-out ( 35 ). Failure of locking systems requires concurrent axial pull-out of all screws or compressive failure of the bone surrounding the screws ( 35 ).…”

“…Failure of conventional plates is often attributed to screw loosening and axial pull-out ( 35 ). Failure of locking systems requires concurrent axial pull-out of all screws or compressive failure of the bone surrounding the screws ( 35 ). The force or load required to cause failure of all screws greatly exceeds that required to cause failure in sequential fashion ( 35 ).…”

“…Failure of locking systems requires concurrent axial pull-out of all screws or compressive failure of the bone surrounding the screws ( 35 ). The force or load required to cause failure of all screws greatly exceeds that required to cause failure in sequential fashion ( 35 ). Therefore, a locking construct requires engagement of fewer cortices than a non-locking to achieve similar load resistance.…”

A novel canine tibial plateau leveling osteotomy (TPLO) fixation device was recently developed with design features such as titanium alloy (TA) material, distal monocortical screw fixation, and a point contact undersurface specifically targeted to reduce surgical site infection rates by ensuring tissue perfusion under the plate. The strength of the novel TPLO construct was compared with that of a predicate stainless steel (SS) locking plate construct with bicortical screws in 16 paired cadaveric canine limbs. The mean loads to failure were 716.71 ± 109.50 N (range 455.69–839.69 N) and 629.50 ± 176.83 N (range 272.58–856.18 N) in the TA and SS groups, respectively. The average ratio of the loads to failure of the paired specimens was 1.18 (p = 0.031). No failure of the TA constructs involved the distal fixation with monocortical screws. Substantial mechanical equivalence of this novel TA monocortical/bicortical fixation construct to an established SS bicortical screw fixation construct is demonstrated. Clinical investigation of potential merits of this novel TA, monocortical/bicortical locking screw/plate system is now warranted.

“…The fracture type can indicate the mechanism through which a fracture occurred. 4 The right humerus fracture was a simple spiral fracture and therefore was most likely to have been caused by torsion. The upper femoral fracture was a spiral wedge fracture and therefore was most likely to have been caused by torsion with an associated bending moment.…”

“…Vida çapını artırmak için vida deliğinin büyütülmesi gerekir. Bu durum ise çivinin zayıflamasına ve o bölgeden kırılmasına neden olabilmektedir (26). DSBLS ile kilitleme seçeneğinde çivinin distalinde herhangi bir delik bulunmamaktadır ve bahsi geçen sebepten dolayı çivinin kırılma ihtimali yoktur.…”
