LOCKING PLATE FOR FIXATION OF MULTIPLE FRACTURES IN PATELLA BONE

摘要

The present invention is directed towards a locking plate (100) which can be both rigid, still allow soft tissue to fall back to the anterior surface of the patella and also allow visualization of the facture fixation during every step. There is no invasion of the interior of the joint side of patella like hooks or gross covering up of the anterior aspect of patella in available plates. Accordingly, the locking plate (100) comprises a base plate (101) adapted to be attached to an anterior surface of the patella (104), said base plate (101) defining a plurality of locking holes (102), wherein the base plate (101) is O-shaped.
