Orthopedic surgeries, especially those related to fractures and trauma in the hand, require advanced fixation techniques to ensure stability and proper healing. One such modern fixation system is the orthopedic locking hand plate, which has revolutionized bone fixation by offering improved strength, stability, and precision. A critical component of these plates is their locking mechanism, which distinguishes them from traditional plates and screws.
In this blog, we will delve into the working principles of the locking mechanism in orthopedic hand plates, how it benefits patients, and why it is preferred over conventional fixation techniques.
