3.5MM Vet Lengthening Plate | Narrow Short Round Hole

Accordion Hover Style
+ Description

The Ø3.5 mm Veterinary Lengthening Plate with narrow short round holes is a specialized orthopedic implant used in distraction osteogenesis (bone lengthening) and corrective osteotomies in small animals. Made from biocompatible stainless steel or titanium alloy, the plate is designed for stabilization during gradual lengthening of long bones.

The 3.5 mm hole diameter accommodates standard 3.5 mm cortical screws, and the narrow profile is ideal for use in small animal bones such as the radius, ulna, tibia, or femur. The short round holes allow secure monocortical or bicortical screw placement while maintaining flexibility in screw angulation and spacing. This plate is pre-contoured or easily contourable, and its low-profile design minimizes soft tissue irritation, making it suitable for subcutaneous or periosteal application in veterinary surgery.

+ Indications
  • Distraction Osteogenesis (Limb Lengthening): Used to maintain bone alignment and stability during gradual lengthening procedures.
  • Corrective Osteotomies: Stabilizes bone after angular or rotational deformity correction.
  • Segmental Bone Transport: Facilitates transport of bone segments in cases of nonunion or bone loss.
  • Fracture Fixation in Small Animals: Appropriate for radius, ulna, tibia, or femur fractures in cats, small dogs, or exotic species.
  • Delayed Union or Nonunion Cases: Maintains mechanical stability while promoting biological healing in compromised fracture healing scenarios.
  • Growth Plate Injuries: Supports bone realignment and length recovery in young animals with growth disturbances.
  • Periarticular Applications: The narrow and short-hole design allows precise placement close to joint surfaces where space is limited.
