FIELD: medicine.
SUBSTANCE: group of inventions relates to field of medicine, namely to traumatology and orthopedics and can be used in surgical treatment of fractures of tubular bones. Reposition of bone fragments and application of plate on fracture zone with its fixation to bone fragments by means of screws are performed. In case of non-diagnosed comminuted fracture or detection in course of primary or revision osteosynthesis insufficient rigidity of one of bone fragments fixation previously fixed plate is elongated with additional application of elongating plate. One end of elongating plate is installed with rest on the edge of previously applied and fixed on bone plate, its other end being fixed on bone fragment by means of screws on holes, made on elongating plate. Elongating plate contains case with holes for mounting screws. One end of case has element for providing possibility of fixation with rest on previously fixed plate, which is made in form of step, whose size corresponds to the thickness of fixed plate, its other end being made with holes for mounting screws.
EFFECT: method ensures reduction of surgery time, reliable fixation of bone fragments, carrying out earlier mobilisation of operated bone, reduction of trauma and postoperative complications, reduction of treatment term.
