The locking screw concept was produced by Dr. Tepic S and Dr. Perren SM for the first time in 1995. With locking compression plate put in use, it became one of the most important developments for plate and screw internal fixation in recent years. Locking screws provide the ability to create a fixed-angle construct while utilizing familiar conventional plating techniques. The fixed-angle construct function like an internal fixators which maintain primary and secondary loss of reduction. This kind construct also provides improved fixation in osteopenic bone or multifragment fractures where traditional screw purchase is compromised. LCP constructs do not rely on plate-to-bone compression to maintain stability. Therefore, the periosteum will be protected and the blood supply to the bone preserved. With these distinguished improvements.
