Small LC-DCP Veterinary Bone Plate for Advanced Fracture Fixation

Description

The Limited Contact Dynamic Compression Plate (LC-DCP) – Small is a high-performance veterinary orthopedic implant designed to provide rigid fracture fixation while preserving the biological environment of the bone. Developed specifically for veterinary surgical applications, this plate incorporates a limited contact undersurface that significantly reduces the plate-to-bone interface, helping maintain periosteal blood supply and minimizing cortical necrosis. This biological advantage supports faster healing and improved clinical outcomes in small animal orthopedic procedures.

The dynamic compression hole design allows controlled axial compression across fracture sites as screws are tightened, ensuring precise fracture reduction and enhanced stability. This feature makes the LC-DCP – Small particularly effective for transverse, short oblique, and mildly comminuted fractures in small animals. The plate geometry ensures consistent load distribution along the bone, reducing stress concentration and implant fatigue during postoperative recovery.

Manufactured with high dimensional accuracy, the LC-DCP – Small offers a low-profile design that minimizes soft tissue irritation while maintaining structural strength. Its smooth surface finish and anatomically balanced shape allow easy contouring during surgery without compromising mechanical integrity. This makes it a reliable choice for veterinary surgeons performing complex fracture repairs where both stability and biological preservation are critical.

The plate is suitable for use in a wide range of veterinary orthopedic indications, including fractures of the radius, ulna, tibia, and femur in small to medium-sized animals. It is available in multiple lengths and hole configurations, allowing surgeons to select the most appropriate implant based on fracture pattern and patient anatomy. Compatibility with small fragment screw systems further enhances its versatility in clinical use.

The Limited Contact Dynamic Compression Plate – Small is offered in both titanium and stainless steel options, enabling veterinary professionals to choose based on surgical preference, imaging requirements, and biomechanical considerations. Its proven design and reliable performance make it an essential component of modern veterinary fracture fixation systems, supporting consistent surgical outcomes and long-term implant stability.
