Bone peg having improved extraction

A bone plating system configured for stabilizing a fracture of a bone, the bone plating system comprising:

• a bone peg comprising:
• a head portion having a head threaded portion that incorporates head threads having a first pitch;
• a shaft portion that extends from the head portion to a distal end of the bone peg, the shaft portion including (i) a shaft threaded portion that incorporates shaft threads having a second pitch, (ii) a first unthreaded portion and (iii) a second unthreaded portion, wherein the shaft threaded portion is disposed intermediate the first and second unthreaded portions and wherein the first unthreaded portion axially offsets the head threaded portion from the shaft threaded portion;
• and
• a bone plate comprising:
• a plate body having an upper surface and a lower surface;
• a hole defined through the plate body from the upper surface to the lower surface;
• a plate threaded portion defined by the plate body at the hole;
• wherein first and second pitches are equivalent whereby the head threaded portion and the shaft threaded portion threadably advance along the plate threaded portion of the bone plate and the bone, respectively in a synchronized manner.
