Dynamic Hip Screw (DHS) System consists of 3 parts: DHS Plate, Compression Screw, and DHS Screw. It provides stabilization at the femoral head.
DHS (Dynamic Hip Screw) Plates
combination of the 135° DHS plate, lag screw and comression screw
compression option up to 20 mm
Properties
- DHS Plate has a neck angle of 135°.
- It provides compression up to 20 mm.
- Thanks to the combination of the Lag screw and the DHS plate, it provides precise and controlled positioning of the implant.
- The same plate is used for right and left applications.
- Offers 2 different raw material options: Ti6AL4V ELI and CrNi.
Indications
It is used in the surgical treatment of femoral intertrochanteric region fractures.
