3.5mm 1/3rd Tubular Plate – Overview
A 3.5mm 1/3rd tubular plate is a type of orthopedic implant used in trauma surgery to fixate small fractures, particularly in long bones like the tibia, fibula, radius, and ulna. It is designed for lightweight fixation and provides stabilization while allowing bone healing.

Key Features
1. Material
Made of stainless steel or titanium for biocompatibility and strength.
Titanium plates are lightweight, corrosion-resistant, and better for patients with allergies to stainless steel.
2. Design & Structure
Thin and Narrow: It covers one-third of the bone's circumference, making it ideal for non-weight-bearing bones.
Compression Holes: It has oval holes that allow dynamic compression, improving fracture stability.
Low-Profile: Reduces soft tissue irritation.
3. Screw Compatibility
Uses 3.5 mm cortical screws for fixation.
Can also accommodate locking screws in some variants for better stability.
Indications (When is it used?)
The 1/3rd tubular plate is used for:
✅ Fixation of small bone fractures, such as:

Fibula fractures
Radius & Ulna fractures
Clavicle fractures
✅ Neutralization Plate in combination with lag screws
✅ Bridging Plate for small bone reconstruction
✅ Osteoporotic bone fractures where minimal hardware is preferred
Advantages
✔ Lightweight & Low Profile – Reduces soft tissue irritation.
✔ Dynamic Compression – Enhances fracture healing by applying compression.
✔ Minimal Invasive Option – Useful for delicate fractures.
✔ Versatile Use – Can be used as a neutralization, bridging, or buttress plate.

Disadvantages
⚠ Not for Heavy Load-Bearing Bones – Not ideal for large fractures or femur/tibia weight-bearing regions.
⚠ Limited Strength – Thinner than standard plates, making it unsuitable for high-stress fractures.

Common Surgical Applications
Distal radius fractures
Fibula fracture repair
Clavicle fractures
Forearm fractures
Pediatric fracture management
