Abstract
The present invention relates to an internal fixator device () of the bone plate type to be used as synthesis means in anatomical regions or epiphyses/metaphyses with poor coating of soft tissue, of the type comprising a two-lobe or eight-shaped bone plate () comprising a pair of lobed portions () which are linked by a central linking portion () and in each of which at least one through-hole () is formed to receive a corresponding bone fixation screw (). Advantageously, each of the pair of lobed portions () of the bone plate () has an upper surface () inclined relative to a reference plane (X) coinciding with a second upper surface of the linking central portion () of the bone plate (), and a lower surface () configured for contact with the bone and inclined relative to the same reference plane (X) with a smaller inclination.
