Patella titanium mesh is used for fixation of patella fracture.
Features and Advantages
1. Using titanium material and advanced processing technology,titanium has good biocompatibility, high hardness, good corrosion resistance and is more suitable as raw materials for orthopedic implant.
2. The surface is anodized to improve the hardness, wear resistance and corrosion resistance of the Locking Plate.
3.Anatomical design make the titanium locking plate to be consistent with patella anatomical shape , good adhesion.Low profile design is also less soft tissue stimulation. The patella titanium mesh is no need for intraoperative prebending, conducive to reducing the workload of the surgeon.
4. Limited contact design,with protection under the plate blood supply and fracture healing fast.
5.The polyaxial Patella Locking Plate has smooth edge and less irritation to soft tissue, which can effectively reduce the risk of carpal tunnel syndrome.
Medical Tips
Patella, commonly known as patella, is a sesamoid bone formed in the tendon of the quadriceps muscle. It is also the largest sesamoid bone in the whole body. It is flat miliary and located under the skin, easy to feel. It can move up, down, left and right to protect the Knee Joint. The back of the patella is smooth covered with cartilage and meets the surface of the femur patella. The front is rough and passes through the quadriceps tendon. Patella fracture can be divided into transverse fracture, comminuted fracture, longitudinal fracture, avulsion fracture and other different types. Transverse fractures are the most common, accounting for 50%-80% of all patellar fractures, which are mostly caused by indirect violent injuries. The knee joint is in a semi-flexion state, the femoral malleolus is against the rear of the patella, and the quadriceps muscle suddenly and violently contracts, resulting in patellar fracture with the femoral condyle as the fulcrum.
