DHS locking plate (135°) - Placa de bloqueo DHS (135°)

The DHS (Dynamic Hip Screw) system with HA5.0 locking screws is a specific type of orthopedic implant used for the fixation of hip fractures, particularly those in the intertrochanteric and subtrochanteric regions of the femur. 

Here are some key points:

Dynamic Hip Screw (DHS): The DHS system is a widely used implant for stabilizing fractures near the hip joint. It typically consists of a lag screw that is placed within the femoral head and a side plate that is attached to the lateral aspect of the femur. The lag screw allows for dynamic compression across the fracture site, promoting optimal bone healing.

HA5.0 Locking Screws: The use of HA5.0 locking screws indicates that the screws have a diameter of 5.0 millimeters and are designed with locking capabilities. Locking screws provide additional stability by locking into the plate, which can be particularly beneficial in cases where there is a risk of screw loosening.

Surgical Technique: Surgeons use the DHS system with HA5.0 locking screws in accordance with established orthopedic surgical techniques for hip fracture fixation. The procedure involves proper placement of the lag screw and attachment of the side plate using the locking screws.

Clinical Applications: The DHS system with HA5.0 locking screws is employed in the treatment of hip fractures to provide stable fixation, promote bone healing, and allow for early mobilization of the patient.
