Semi-Tubular Plate 4.5. These plates are primarily indicated for areas of low stress such as forearm-radius, and are also recommended for the fractures of fibula.
Compression is applied by eccentric positioning of the screws against the side of the screw hole furthest from the fracture line.
Use 4.5 mm cortical screws and 6.5 mm cancellous screws for the fixation.
