PLATE AND SYSTEM FOR MAKING VERTEBRAL COLUMN OSTEOSYNTHESIS

摘要

FIELD: medicine; medical engineering. ^ SUBSTANCE: device is rectangular and has four or more slits for fixing means to pass through each of them. Two slits have exit to lateral side of plate to enable one to set the plate at required position and fix it without preliminarily removing the instrument for correcting orientation relative to vertebral column. Lateral plate surface runs from edge pointing the same direction with longitudinal plate direction. The latter exactly coincides with the vertebral column direction. The system comprises several vertebral column osteosynthesis plates to keep orientation correction relative to the vertebral column unchanged. Correction is carried out by means of the instrument for correcting orientation. ^ EFFECT: less number of holes to be drilled for mounting the device. ^ 11 cl, 10 dwg
