A joint fixation system particularly useful for joints of the hand is disclosed. The joint fixation system includes a joint fixation plate having a distal section, a proximal section, and an intermediate section connecting the distal section and the proximal section. The distal section includes a distal section screw hole, and the proximal section includes a proximal section screw hole. The joint fixation plate is pre-bent such that the distal section and the proximal section form an included angle of less than 180 degrees. The joint fixation system includes a first screw dimensioned to engage an inner surface of the distal section screw hole, and a second screw dimensioned to engage an inner surface of the proximal section screw hole. The first screw is angulated proximally when inserted in the distal screw hole, and the second screw is angulated distally when inserted in the proximal screw hole. |
