Abstract
An orthopedic tension band plate includes proximal and distal portions. The proximal portion includes a first proximal aperture configured to receive a first securing member, and a second proximal aperture disposed distal of the first proximal aperture and configured to receive a second securing member. The distal portion includes first and second tines extending distally to first and second distal ends having first and second distal apertures configured to receive third and fourth securing members. At least the first and second tines are configured to wrap around and conform to portions of the bone proximate to the fracture and, thereby, convert tensile forces at the fracture into compressive forces when the first through fourth securing members are secured through their respective apertures and into the bone.
