2.7mm LCP Pediatric Hip Plate | Proximal Femoral Osteotomy System for DDH & Deformity Correction

High-Precision 2.7mm LCP Pediatric Hip Plate for Orthopedic Surgery

At OrthoPro, we are dedicated to providing world-class orthopedic solutions for the most vulnerable patients—children. Our 2.7mm LCP Pediatric Hip Plate is a state-of-the-art trauma implant engineered specifically for the complex anatomical requirements of the pediatric proximal femur. Designed to address conditions such as Developmental Dysplasia of the Hip (DDH), Coxa Vara, and Coxa Valga, this system represents the pinnacle of locking compression technology in pediatric orthopedics.

Product Overview and Design Philosophy

The 2.7mm LCP Pediatric Hip Plate is part of our comprehensive small fragment locking system. It combines the benefits of locking screw technology with the biological advantages of limited contact plates. In pediatric hip surgery, maintaining the blood supply to the femoral head and ensuring the integrity of the growth plate (physis) is paramount. Our plate design respects these biological constraints while providing rigid mechanical stability.

The system utilizes a Locking Compression Plate (LCP) architecture. This allows the surgeon to choose between locking screws, which thread into the plate to create a fixed-angle construct, and standard cortical screws for dynamic compression. This versatility is essential when treating pediatric bone, which can vary significantly in density and quality depending on the patient’s age and pathology.

Key Surgical Applications and Indications

This specialized implant is indicated for a range of reconstructive and trauma procedures in infants and small children, typically focusing on the proximal femur:

• Proximal Femoral Osteotomies: The primary application is for derotation and varus/valgus osteotomies to correct congenital or acquired deformities. This is a standard treatment for DDH to improve acetabular coverage.
• Fracture Fixation: Stabilization of femoral neck fractures and pertrochanteric fractures in the pediatric population.
• Correction of Coxa Vara/Valga: Restoring the normal neck-shaft angle to improve hip biomechanics.
• Non-unions and Malunions: Revision surgery for previously failed fixations or improperly healed fractures.

Features and Benefits

1. Angular Stability:
The locking mechanism provides excellent angular stability, which is crucial in osteotomies where the distinct bone fragments must be held in a precise relationship to ensure proper healing and alignment. This reduces the risk of loss of reduction post-surgery.

2. Anatomical Design:
The plates are pre-contoured to fit the anatomy of the pediatric proximal femur, reducing the need for intraoperative bending and shortening surgical time. The low-profile design minimizes soft tissue irritation, a critical factor in pediatric patients with thin subcutaneous tissue.

3. Versatile Screw Configuration:
The proximal end of the plate is designed to accept specialized locking screws or blades that provide secure fixation within the femoral neck without violating the physis. The distal shaft holes utilize Combi-holes, allowing for compression or locking fixation.

Material Specifications

Biocompatibility is non-negotiable. The 2.7mm LCP Pediatric Hip Plate is manufactured from premium Titanium Alloy (Ti-6Al-4V) or high-grade Stainless Steel (depending on market preference), adhering to ISO and ASTM international standards. Titanium is often preferred for its lower modulus of elasticity, which is closer to that of bone, reducing stress shielding and promoting better bone remodeling.

Technical Parameters

Our system is designed to be compatible with standard 2.7mm instrumentation sets. Below are the specific technical parameters for the 2.7mm LCP Pediatric Hip Plate:
