supracondylar plates
Supracondylar femoral fractures in mature animals can be very difficult to repair. Small distal fragment size makes placement of sufficient implants a challenge. Available in a range of sizes and lengths. 2.0, 2.4, 2.7, 3.5 narrow and 3.5 broad (two lengths).

Supracondylar femoral fractures in mature animals can be very difficult to repair.
Small distal fragment size makes placement of sufficient implants a challenge. In medium and large dogs there are often multiple small fragments in the supracondylar area. The forces acting on the distal femur are complex requiring a special plate to neutralise them.
The 2.7 and 3.5mm plates were developed by Mark Glyde using finite element analysis.
Available in a range of sizes and lengths. 2.0, 2.4, 2.7, 3.5 narrow and 3.5 broad (two lengths). Use Bending Templates to pre-contour plates.
An extra long version for cats has been developed in conjunction with Sorrel Langley-Hobbs.
