Abstract

This study describes the titanium ComPact UniLock 2.0/2.4 locking plate system (Stratec Medical, Oberdorf, Switzerland) and reports its application in nine selected clinical cases. The system was found useful for a variety of indications. Three categories of clinical applications are illustrated. They include (a) long bone fractures, (b) cervical spinal fractures and instabilities and (c) joint instabilities and luxations. A brief introduction to the system has already been published
