The LCP Proximal Femure 5.0/6.0mm Locking Plate is an anatomically contoured implant designed for the internal fixation of fractures, osteotomies, and non-unions of the proximal femur. It uses LCP (Locking Compression Plate) technology to provide angular stability, which is vital for maintaining reduction and resisting varus collapse in the complex anatomy of the hip region. The plate is designed to accept both 5.0mm and 6.0mm screws and is side-specific (Left and Right) to ensure an optimal fit over the lateral aspect of the femur.
