Abstract
An osteosynthesis system includes a bone plate and a segment. The bone plate includes a plurality of passages for bone screws and at least one web. The segment includes at least one passage for a screw. The segment has a clip-like configuration and can be snapped onto the web of the bone plate. The segment also has an upper half and a lower half and is fastened on the web of the bone plate with a force-locked connection by moving the upper and lower halves toward each other. The upper and the lower halves are moved towards each other by introducing a screw into the at least one passage of the segment.
