The 4.5/5.0mm DHS Locking Plate Set with Lag Screw is a professional orthopedic implant system designed for the surgical management of hip fractures, particularly intertrochanteric and proximal femoral fracture fixation procedures. This compact and efficient fixation set combines a dynamic hip screw (DHS) locking plate with compatible lag screws to provide controlled compression, stable fixation, and dependable support during fracture healing.

Dynamic Hip Screw systems are widely used in orthopedic trauma surgery due to their ability to provide controlled sliding compression across fracture sites. The 4.5/5.0mm DHS Safety Locking Plate integrates locking technology with traditional DHS principles, offering enhanced fixation stability while maintaining effective fracture compression. This combination provides surgeons with a versatile solution for treating fractures requiring strong proximal femoral support.

The 3-hole DHS locking plate design offers a balanced combination of strength and minimally invasive implant profile. The compact plate configuration allows effective fixation while reducing unnecessary hardware bulk. The plate is designed to provide secure attachment to the femoral shaft while the lag screw component extends into the femoral head and neck region to support fracture stabilization.

The included 80–95mm lag screws provide multiple length options to accommodate different patient anatomies and surgical requirements. The lag screw design enables controlled compression between fracture fragments, helping promote stability and support natural bone healing. Accurate screw selection and placement are essential for achieving optimal fixation outcomes in hip fracture procedures.

Manufactured from high-quality orthopedic implant-grade materials, the DHS locking plate and lag screws provide excellent mechanical strength, corrosion resistance, and long-term reliability. The precision-engineered components are designed to withstand the forces experienced during weight-bearing activities while maintaining secure fixation.

This 8-piece DHS safety locking plate set provides orthopedic surgeons with essential fixation components in an organized configuration. The compact set format makes it suitable for hospitals, trauma centers, and orthopedic surgical facilities requiring dependable implant solutions for proximal femoral fracture management.

The DHS locking plate system is commonly used in orthopedic trauma procedures involving intertrochanteric fractures, subtrochanteric fractures, and selected proximal femur reconstruction cases. Its ability to provide stable fixation and controlled compression makes it a valuable option in modern fracture treatment protocols.

The locking plate technology helps improve implant stability by allowing secure screw engagement between the plate and locking components. This can be particularly beneficial in cases where additional fixation strength is required due to fracture complexity or bone quality considerations.

Designed for professional orthopedic applications, the 4.5/5.0mm DHS Safety Locking Plate 3 Holes with Lag Screw 80–95mm – 8 Pieces Set combines proven DHS fixation principles with modern locking technology. It provides orthopedic specialists with a reliable, durable, and efficient solution for hip fracture stabilization and reconstructive surgery.
