Style Compression Plate 4mm Thickness GV 12mm for Veterinary TPLO Fixation

Style Compression Plate 4mm Thickness GV 12mm is a stainless steel veterinary orthopedic implant plate designed for TPLO support, fracture stabilization, bone alignment, and plate-screw fixation in small and large animal orthopedic procedures. The available variants include GV Style Compression Plate 37mm Length 12mm Width 4mm Thickness 2 Round Holes, 55mm, 73mm, 91mm, 109mm, 127mm, 145mm, 163mm, 181mm, 199mm, 217mm, 235mm, and 253mm length options with the same 12mm width, 4mm thickness, and 2 round hole configuration. The plate has a straight elongated body, rounded implant ends, two round screw holes, and a rigid profile for controlled placement across selected orthopedic fixation sites. It is used during tibial plateau leveling osteotomy support, long bone stabilization, corrective osteotomy, fracture repair, and veterinary trauma procedures where a 12mm wide GV compression plate is required. Veterinary orthopedic surgeons, referral hospitals, teaching programs, and procurement teams use this implant family in TPLO and orthopedic plate inventories.

12mm Width, 4mm Thickness, and Two Round Hole Plate Geometry

The 12mm width and 4mm thickness profile gives this GV Style Compression Plate a defined implant footprint for veterinary orthopedic fixation. The straight plate body supports placement along prepared bone surfaces where the surgeon requires a controlled bar-style implant rather than a multi-hole compression plate with extended screw spread. Two round holes allow screw placement at planned fixation points while preserving a compact plate configuration. The round hole geometry supports straightforward screw positioning when the operative plan does not require elongated compression slots. The smooth stainless steel surface and rounded ends help the surgical team position the plate during trial placement, contour assessment, drilling, and screw insertion. The 4mm thickness profile contributes rigidity for stabilization while the 12mm width provides surface contact across the selected bone corridor. Correct use depends on patient size, bone diameter, fracture pattern, plate location, screw compatibility, and surgeon judgment during final fixation.

TPLO Support, Fracture Stabilization, and Veterinary Plate Fixation

Clinical use begins after radiographic assessment, surgical planning, reduction or osteotomy positioning, plate selection, and confirmation of compatible screw instrumentation. In TPLO procedures, the Style Compression Plate 4mm Thickness GV 12mm may be selected where the surgeon requires a straight GV plate profile with two round screw holes for a defined fixation point. In fracture repair, the plate may support bone segment alignment, temporary stabilization strategy, or selected plate-screw fixation depending on the case plan. It may also be used in corrective osteotomy support, metaphyseal stabilization, long bone repair, and veterinary trauma workflows where the 12mm wide and 4mm thick profile matches the target anatomy. The surgeon positions the plate, confirms alignment, drills through the selected round holes, measures depth, and inserts compatible screws. Implant handling should follow facility protocol for sterile transfer, inspection, and single-patient orthopedic use.

37mm to 253mm Length Selection for Orthopedic Case Planning

The 37mm, 55mm, 73mm, and 91mm variants are selected for compact fixation sites, smaller patients, limited exposure, and short bone corridors where a longer plate would be excessive. The 109mm, 127mm, 145mm, 163mm, and 181mm variants support moderate-length orthopedic applications where the surgeon needs greater span while maintaining the same 12mm width and 4mm thickness. The longer 199mm, 217mm, 235mm, and 253mm variants are selected when the operative site requires extended plate length, broader coverage, or alignment support across a longer bone segment. Each listed length retains the two round hole design, so selection is based on plate span rather than hole-count increase. Final length choice should follow preoperative measurement, intraoperative plate trialing, bone contour, expected loading, and screw placement strategy. Stocking the full length range gives the orthopedic team flexibility without changing the width, thickness, or round-hole design.

Stainless Steel Implant Handling, Inspection, and Procurement Documentation

Stainless steel construction supports implant rigidity, surface durability, screw hole integrity, and predictable handling during orthopedic tray preparation. Before surgical use, the team should inspect the plate for visible damage, surface defects, hole deformation, contamination, or packaging concerns. The two round holes should remain clean and clearly formed so compatible drill guides, drill bits, depth gauges, and screws can be used without obstruction. Implant handling should follow hospital protocol for sterilization status, sterile transfer, documentation, and single-patient surgical use. Procurement teams can standardize this plate family alongside GV Style Compression Plates, TPLO plates, cortical screws, cancellous screws, drill bits, plate benders, holding forceps, and implant racks. CE marking, ISO 13485 certification, and FDA compliance language support purchasing records for veterinary hospitals, distributors, teaching programs, and institutional buyers. The $19.80-$22.00 price range, OEM availability, carton-box packing, and return and replacement support help maintain replacement inventory for orthopedic and TPLO case preparation.

How is the Style Compression Plate 4mm Thickness GV 12mm used? The plate is positioned over a planned orthopedic fixation site after reduction, osteotomy positioning, or bone alignment has been confirmed. The surgeon selects the correct length, places the plate against the bone surface, drills through the two round holes, measures screw depth, and inserts compatible screws. The plate helps maintain alignment according to the chosen fixation strategy. Final use depends on patient size, bone quality, plate length, screw compatibility, and the surgeon’s operative plan.

Which length should be selected from the 37mm to 253mm range? Shorter lengths such as 37mm, 55mm, 73mm, and 91mm are selected for compact fixation zones and smaller bone corridors. Mid-length options support moderate orthopedic applications where additional span is needed. Longer 199mm, 217mm, 235mm, and 253mm plates are selected when the surgeon needs extended coverage along a longer bone segment. Length selection should follow radiographic planning, intraoperative trialing, exposure, bone contour, and expected loading.

How does this plate differ from the broader GV Style Compression Plate family? This product is a defined 12mm wide, 4mm thick GV plate with a two round hole configuration across multiple lengths. The broader GV Style Compression Plate family includes variants with different hole counts, widths, and thickness profiles. This plate is selected when the surgeon specifically needs the 12mm by 4mm profile with two round screw holes rather than a longer multi-hole layout. The distinction is important for tray organization and implant selection.

What screws are compatible with this plate? Screw selection depends on the plate hole dimensions, veterinary implant system, bone quality, and fixation plan. Compatible cortical or cancellous screws may be used when they match the plate design and surgical objective. The surgeon should confirm screw diameter, drill bit, depth gauge, tap requirements if applicable, driver fit, and length before placement. Proper compatibility supports controlled insertion, stable seating, and predictable plate fixation.

What role does this implant serve in a veterinary orthopedic inventory? Style Compression Plate 4mm Thickness GV 12mm provides a standardized two-hole straight plate option for TPLO support, fracture stabilization, corrective osteotomy planning, and selected plate-screw fixation. Stocking the full length range allows the surgical team to choose plate span without changing width, thickness, or hole configuration. It is stored with compatible screws, drill bits, depth gauges, plate holders, reduction forceps, plate benders, and orthopedic implant racks for organized case preparation.
