Comparison of a 2.7-mm and 3.5-mm locking compression plate for ulnar fractures: a biomechanical evaluation

Abstract. Objectives:. Implant prominence after ulnar fracture fixation may be mitigated by the use of lower profile plates. The biomechanical strength and stability of 2.7-mm and 3.5-mm locking compression plates for fixation were compared. Methods:. Two fracture conditions, transverse (N = 10) and...
