COMPRESSION MANDIBULAR OSTEOSYNTHESIS MINIPLATE, METHOD OF FIXATION THEREOF AND FIXATION INSTRUMENT SET

摘要

FIELD: medicine. ^ SUBSTANCE: invention refers to maxillofacial surgery, and can be applied for fixation of a compression miniplate. An end of the miniplate with a profiled hole is positioned on a greater bone fragment and fixed on a small fragment with one screw only after a fracture line and a miniplate centre aligned. With the use of a conductor, a secondary compressor pin hole is formed in the bone fragment under the profiled hole. The compressor is turned clockwise to enable the visual disappearance of bone fragment diastasis. Fixation on the greater fragment is made with one screw only. The compressor is removed, and miniplate fixation is completed through the remained holes. ^ EFFECT: method allows to reduce risk of bone tissue resorption, to enable early functional load. ^ 14 dwg
