Abstract

See full text

The present application provides new and innovative anterior clavicle plates and systems for clavicle fracture fixation. The provided anterior clavicle plate is shaped to better conform to or fit the anterior and lateral surfaces of a patient's clavicle as compared to typical anterior clavicle plates. This improved conformance can help reduce the incidence of tissue irritation, which reduces the chances of a second surgery being needed for removal of the anterior clavicle plate. The improved conformance can also result in an anatomically better fracture reduction than typical anterior clavicle plates and an increased fixation strength. Additionally, an instrument provided by the present application can help a surgeon install the provided anterior clavicle plate more quickly and with increased flexibility and consistency than typical systems.
