The AMAZONTM LCP Hook Plate 3.5 mm is a locking compression plate that merges locking screw technology with conventional plating techniques. The plate features pointed hooks to aid in plate placement and holes for both lag screws and locking screws. Elongated LCP holes make the plate and its fixation more flexible and allow for controlled compression. The spring effect facilitates reduction and a stable tension-band technique. The AMAZONTM LCP Hook Plate 3.5 mm enables tension-band plating with use of 3.5 mm screws. The hook plate was primarily intended for the treatment of simple fractures of the olecranon as well as osteotomies of the olecranon following distal humeral fracture. It has also shown benefits in avulsion fracture of the distal tibia and fibula. A single 3-hole plate can be used in multiple locations, applied to either the right or left side of the anatomy, resulting in less inventory required.
