Figure 1From: Effect of plate working length on plate stiffness and cyclic fatigue life in a cadaveric femoral fracture gap model stabilized with a 12-hole 2.4 mm locking compression plateTesting constructs of long and short plate working length stabilization techniques. Long plate working length stabilization technique (left) and short plate working length stabilization technique (right). Each plate had a 2.4 mm locking screw (○) placed in the second hole from each end of the plate. The other screws were 2.4 mm cortical screws (●).Back to article page
