Screw insertion
Determine whether conventional cortex screws, cancellous bone screws or locking screws
will be used for fixation. A combination of all may be used. If a combination of cortex,
cancellous and locking screws is used, a conventional screw should be used first to pull
the plate to the bone. If a locking screw is used first, care should be taken to ensure that
the plate is held securely to the bone to avoid spinning of the plate about the bone as the
locking screw is tightened to the plate.
Insertion of a cortex or cancellous bone screw
Use the 4.5 mm or 3.5mm Universal Drill Guide for an eccentric (compression) or neutral
(buttress) insertion of cortex screws. The 4.5 mm or 3.5mm LC-DCP Drill Guide and DCP
Drill Guide are not suitable for use with LCP plates.
Neutral insertion of a conventional screw in Compression hole
When pressing the universal drill guide into the DCU
portion of the Compression hole, it will center itself and allow
neutral predrilling.

Plate selection
®
Conventional Plate Set. If necessary, use a bending instruments to determine plate
length and configuration.
Contouring
the
anatomy.The plate holes have been designed to accept some degree of deformation. When
bending the plate, place the bending irons on two consecutive holes. This ensures that the
threaded holes will not be distorted. Significant distortion of the locking holes will reduce
locking effectiveness.
Reduction and temporary plate placement
The plate may be temporarily held in place with standard plate holding forceps. The
middle of the plate should be positioned over the fracture site if compression of the
fracture fragments is desired. Alternatively, the Drill Guide can be used as an aid to
position the plate on the bone.

Insertion of the Locking Screws
The locking screw is not a lag screw. Use nonlocking screws when requiring a precise
anatomical reduction (e.g., joint surfaces) or interfragmentary compression. Before
inserting the first locking screw, perform anatomical reduction and fix the fracture with lag
screws, if necessary. After the insertion of locking screws, an anatomical reduction will no
longer be possible without loosening the locking screw.

Screw the appropriate Threaded Drill Guide for 3.5
mm, 5.0mm or 6.5mm screws into an LCP locking
hole until fully seated. Do not try to bend the plate
using the Threaded Drill Guide because damage
may occur to the threads.
Use the appropriate Drill Bit (2.8 mm for 3.5 mm
screws, 4.3 mm for 5.0 mm screws and 5.8mm for
6.5mm cannulated screws) to drill to the desired
depth.
Dynamic compression, eccentric insertion of a cortex screw in Compressionhole
To drill a hole for dynamic compression, place the universal drill guide eccentrically at the
edge of the DCU portion of the Compression hole, without applying pressure. Tightening of the
cortex screws will result in dynamic compression corresponding to that of DCP plates.
Neutral insertion of a conventional screw in locking hole
When pressing the universal drill guide into the unique design locking hole, it will center
itself and allow neutral predrilling.
