摘要

The plate (1) has an epiphyseal portion (3) installed at bone epiphysis and broadened with respect to a diaphyseal portion (2). The epiphyseal portion has a curved shape along a longitudinal axis of the plate, and screw receiving holes (8) which are threaded to receive threaded screws. The diaphyseal portion is narrow and has a recessed hole (5), where concavity of the diaphyseal portion is found on a face of the plate turned toward a side of a bone. The epiphyseal portion is prolonged by a curved portion (4) terminated by a sharp jaw (10).
