The LCP L-Buttress 5.0mm Locking Plate is an anatomically contoured, side-specific implant designed for internal fixation of fractures and osteotomies in metaphyseal regions of large bones, typically the proximal tibia or distal femur, where an L-shape is required to provide buttress support. Utilizing LCP (Locking Compression Plate) technology, it provides fixed-angle stability crucial for maintaining reduction and resisting collapse in the metaphyseal area. The plate is designed for use with 5.0mm screws.
