  • Publication number: 20230255668
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a rotation prevention member of a leg screw for fixing a bone that is configured to prevent rotation of a leg crew that is coupled to a nail in a medullary cavity such as a femur and fixes a fracture portion. The rotation prevention member of a leg screw for fixing a bone, in which a femoral nail is fitted in an end of a femoral marrow, a leg screw combined with a cap is laterally inserted in a transverse hole formed at an angle with respect to a longitudinal axis of the nail, and the leg screw is fixed to be longitudinally movable without rotating in the transverse hole, includes: pin guide grooves formed symmetric to each other in a longitudinal direction of the leg screw; a superelastic member inserted in the pin guide grooves; and a cap thread-fastened to a rear surface of the leg screw to prevent separation of the superelastic member in order to prevent rotation between a threaded portion of the leg screw and a bone due to rotation after a fracture part is occupied.

  • Patent number: 10149708
    Abstract: A bone plate system for fracture surgery is provided. The bone plate system includes a bone plate and a locking screw. The bone plate includes an upper surface, a lower surface facing a bone, and a locking hole in which an even-number-ridge internal thread is formed. The locking screw is coupled to the locking hole. The locking screw includes a head tapered so that a diameter thereof decreases along a center axis, a shank extending from the head, a double-ridge external thread formed on the head and configured to be tightened to the even-number-ridge internal thread, and an external thread formed on the shank and configured to be fastened to the bone.
