LCP external fixation - External application of an internal fixator: two cases and a review of the literature

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2010
The locking compression plate (LCP) is an angle-stable fixator intended for intracorporeal application. In selected cases, it can be applied externally in an extracorporeal location to function as a monolateral external fixator.
