Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2008029143A2] A bone plate for fixation to a patient's vertebrae which includes a pair of fixation pads, each having at least one hole in it for receiving a fixation screw, and a bridge portion which extends between the fixation pads. At least one of the fixation pads comprises two pad portions which are hingedly connected to one another in such a way that the hinge portions are capable of relative movement so that the bone facing surface of the pad can conform to the surface of the vertebra to which the pad is to be fixed.
