DCS Locking Plate

The DCS Locked Plate features – Low-profile design reduces risk of iliotibial band
irritation (distal femoral fractures) and trochanteric bursitis (subtrochanteric fractures).. The DCS Locked Plates are made of 316L stainless steel and are cold-worked for strength.

• The DCS Locked Plates are available with 6 to 16 holes, for
varied clinical situations.

• The Dynamic Condylar Screw is designed to provide
strong and stable internal fixation of certain distal
femoral and subtrochanteric fractures, with minimal
soft tissue irritation.

• Two flats within the DCS Locked Plate barrel correspond to
the two-flat design of the lag screw, preventing
rotation of the DHS/DCS Lag Screw within the barrel.
The two-flat design also eases insertion of the plate
over the DHS/DCS Lag Screw.
• DCP holes in the DCS side plate allow angulation of 4.5 mm Cortex Screws and locking option for 5.0mm Cortex Locked Screw axial compression across a shaft fracture.

• The two holes closest to the barrel accept 6.5 mm
Cancellous Bone Screws. This enhances stability
by allowing:
— fixation of the most distal condylar fracture
fragments with two or more screws, or
— fixation of the most proximal subtrochanteric
fracture fragment with two or more screws.
The DCS Locked Plate is indicated for the following fractures of the
distal femur:
• Intercondylar fractures
• Supracondylar fractures
• Unicondylar fractures
