Locked plate applications, on the other hand, provide fixations with high resistance against the deforming forces acting on the fracture ends. The most obvious advantages of locking plates over conventional plates are that they can be placed close to the joint line and can be screwed into a single cortex in more than one plane. With these features, they become a reliable option in intra-articular fractures with difficulty in fixation and fractures with dorsal metaphyseal fragments.
