Results using the AO hook plate for dislocations of the acromioclavicular joint

open access: yesExpert Review of Medical Devices, 2008
The AO Hook plate has been used for stabilization of acromioclavicular joint dislocations. We present our experience of this newly introduced device in a general hospital, since there are not many papers in the literature reporting on this. A total of 16

Optimizing hook implantation angle of the clavicular hook plate: a cadaveric study

European Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery & Traumatology
While Clavicle hook plates have demonstrated favorable results regarding bone and shoulder function, their design can potentially lead to complications due to pressure concentration at the plate's tip. This study aims to investigate the impact of different hook implantation angles on the contact surface area between the hook plate and acromion, with ...

Three-dimensional scapular dyskinesis in hook-plated acromioclavicular dislocation including hook motion

Journal of Shoulder and Elbow Surgery, 2018
The purpose of this study is to analyze the 3-dimensional scapular dyskinesis and the kinematics of a hook plate relative to the acromion after hook-plated acromioclavicular dislocation in vivo. Reported complications of acromioclavicular reduction using a hook plate include subacromial erosion and impingement.

The use of the Zuelzer hook plate in fixation of olecranon fractures

The Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery, 1976
Twenty-five cases of fracture of the olecranon process were treated using a modification of the Zuelzer hook plate, and uniformly excellent or good results were obtained in all cases in which there were no other associated traumatic lesions about the elbow joint.

Application of a Hook Plate for Management of Equine Ulnar Fractures

Veterinary Surgery, 1996
Closed fractures of the proximal aspect of the ulna were repaired in 10 horses younger than or equal to 6 months of age by application of a hook plate using a tension band principle. Ulnar fractures were classified as type 1A (2 horses), type 1B (4 horses), type 2 (1 horse), type 3 (1 horse), and type 4 (2 horses); all fractures had displacement of a ...

The Hook Plate Technique for Fixation of Phalangeal Avulsion Fractures

Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery, 2012
Avulsion fractures of the phalanges involve small osseous fragments that are usually attached to structures that are necessary for stability or movement of the joint. Satisfactory healing of the fracture to preserve joint function may require open reduction and internal fixation, which can be difficult because of the small size of the fragments.We used

Clinical comparison of hook plate fixation versus extension block pinning for bony mallet finger: a retrospective comparison study

open access: yesJournal of Hand Surgery: European Volume, 2015
The aim of this retrospective study was to determine whether traumatic mallet fractures had better outcomes when treated by hook plate fixation (13 patients) or extension block pinning (19 patients).

Hook Plate Fixation of Medial Malleolar Fractures

Techniques in Orthopaedics, 2018
Ankle fractures are common injuries treated by orthopedic surgeons. Medial malleolar fractures, occurring in isolation or in combination with lateral or posterior malleolar fractures, usually require surgical fixation if there is any amount of fracture displacement.

One-third tubular hook plate.

Operative Orthopadie und Traumatologie, 2009
It is often the case that screws cannot be firmly anchored in small, marginal joint fragments. This is especially relevant in osteoporotic bone. By redesigning the last plate hole of a one-third tubular plate to function as a hook, these bone fragments can be securely grasped and stabilized.

Comminuted fractures of the proximal humerus treated with hook plate

Archives of Orthopaedic and Traumatic Surgery, 1986
Good results were obtained using a hook plate to fix bone in 18 cases of fracture of the proximal humerus in which the bone was greatly comminuted or dislocated. The hook plate protects the fixed area against rotation, shear stress and flexion much better than other fixation methods.
