DHS/DCS Plate Instruments Set is a collection of surgical instruments specifically designed for use in procedures involving Dynamic Hip Screw (DHS) and Dynamic Compression Screw (DCS) plates. These orthopedic implants are commonly used in the treatment of hip fractures, particularly those involving the proximal femur.
The set typically includes a variety of instruments required for the precise insertion and fixation of DHS or DCS plates, such as drills, taps, screwdrivers, depth gauges, plate benders, and other specialized tools. These instruments are essential for preparing the bone, positioning the plate, and securing it with screws to provide stable fixation of the fracture.
The DHS system consists of a lag screw that is inserted into the femoral head and a side plate that is fixed to the lateral aspect of the proximal femur. The DCS system is similar but utilizes a compression screw instead of a lag screw. Both systems aim to achieve stable fixation of the fracture and promote healing while allowing controlled compression across the fracture site.
