Fracture Fixation System for Long Bone

A fracture repair system comprising:

• a femoral implant implantable into a proximal femur, the femoral implant including a first opening;
• a bone plate implantable on a surface of the proximal femur, the bone plate including a second opening;
• and
• an anchorage bolt securing the bone plate to the femoral implant by passing through the second opening and into the first opening and when the femoral implant is implanted into the proximal femur and the bone plate is implanted on the proximal femur, the anchorage bolt being aligned along an axis transverse to a plane where the plane is coincident with a central axis of a neck of the femoral implant and a central axis of a stem of the femoral implant.

A system for bone fracture repair comprising:

• a bone plate adapted for engagement onto an end portion of a bone, the bone plate including an opening through the bone plate, the opening defined by an inner surface with a concave contour;
• and
• a drill guide compressed against the bone plate when the bone plate is engaged on the end portion of the bone, the drill guide having a first part adapted for anchorage to a location fixed with respect to the bone and a second part attached to the first part and movable with respect to the first part, the second part having a cannulated shaft with a rounded tip facing the first part when the second part is attached to the first part,
• wherein the rounded tip of the drill guide is complementary to the concave contour of the bone plate such that when drill guide is compressed against bone plate, forces are transferred through the surface area of the rounded tip in contact with the concave contour.
