Indications and Contraindications for Orthopedic Steel Plates
1、 Applicable scenarios
Osteoporotic fractures
Intra articular comminuted fracture
Comminuted fracture of the metaphysis
Highly unstable fractures such as periprosthetic fractures
The bridging principle (comminuted fracture) and the combination principle (simple+comminuted mixed fracture) are classic indications.
2、 Contraindications
Simple fractures require compression fixation (such as forearm shaft fractures)
Displacement of intra-articular fractures requires open reduction
Conventional fractures that can be satisfied with traditional steel plates
