Patella Hook Plate



The Patella Hook Plate is a specialized orthopedic implant designed for the fixation of fractures and osteotomies of the patella (kneecap). It features strategically placed distal hooks that securely engage the patellar tendon or the lower pole of the patella, providing stable, anatomical reduction and resisting distal pull forces during knee flexion and extension.
The plate is contoured to conform to the natural curvature of the patella, minimizing the need for intraoperative bending. Multiple screw holes allow for versatile fixation using small-fragment locking or cortical screws, ensuring stable fixation even in comminuted or osteoporotic bone.
Ideal for inferior pole patella fractures, comminuted patella fractures, and patellar reconstructions, the Patella Hook Plate promotes early mobilization and reduces the risk of hardware-related complications due to its low-profile and soft-tissue friendly design.
- Distal Hook Design: Securely engages the inferior pole of the patella or patellar tendon, providing strong resistance against tensile forces.
- Anatomically Contoured Plate: Pre-shaped to match the natural curvature of the patella, reducing the need for intraoperative bending and improving surgical efficiency.
- Multiple Screw Holes: Allows for versatile fixation with small-fragment cortical or locking screws, ensuring secure purchase in varying bone qualities.
- Low-Profile Design: Minimizes soft tissue irritation and reduces the risk of postoperative complications.
- Locking and Non-Locking Screw Compatibility: Supports both locking and standard cortical screws to accommodate different fixation strategies.
- Biocompatible Material: Typically available in stainless steel or titanium alloy for optimal strength, durability, and biocompatibility.
- Ideal for Complex Patellar Fractures: Particularly suited for comminuted or inferior pole patella fractures where traditional tension band techniques are insufficient.
- Facilitates Early Mobilization: Rigid fixation promotes early rehabilitation and reduces immobilization time.
- Inferior Pole Patella Fractures: Especially when the fragment is too small or comminuted for traditional tension band wiring.
- Comminuted Patellar Fractures: Where stable fixation is difficult to achieve with standard techniques.
- Transverse or Complex Patellar Fractures: Requiring rigid fixation to restore the extensor mechanism of the knee.
- Patellar Nonunions or Malunions: Where revision fixation is needed with improved mechanical stability.
- Osteoporotic Patellar Fractures: Where enhanced fixation strength is essential due to poor bone quality.
- Post-Tension Band Failure Cases: As a secondary or salvage fixation method following unsuccessful primary treatment.
- Patellar Osteotomies: Where controlled fixation is necessary for guided healing and rehabilitation.
