Kinds of Modes of Bone Plating

-

 A bone plate may be placed so that it may be utilized for one of the following kinds of structural support:

  • Compression Mode

  • Neutralization Mode

  • Buttress plate

  • Antiglide plate

  • Bridge plating or span plating

  • Tension band

Plates are available in various shapes and sizes depending on the bone size and its anatomical shape. Similarly, Bone Screw size is dependent on the size & type of plate used. A small plate will typically be used for a small bone, which allows space only for the screw of smaller size.

Depending upon the fracture type and location, a plate can be used in any one of the following methods

Compression Mode

The word compression in fixation of a fracture means bringing the two fragments closer to one another so that the fragments oppose well.

When the plate is utilized to achieve compression with the fracture fixation, it is said to be utilized in compression mode. This mode is utilized on oblique and transverse fractures.
