Abstract
The bone plate of the present invention includes a body portion to be fixed to an obliquely anterior medial surface of the tibia below the osteotomy surface; a wide portion to be fixed to an outer peripheral surface of the tibia at a higher position than the osteotomy surface; a connecting portion that connects the body portion and the wide portion; and a plurality of screw holes arrayed in the body portion, the wide portion and the connecting portion. An inner surface that extends from the wide portion to the connecting portion and faces the tibia has a continuous curved shape twisted about an axis along the longitudinal direction of the tibia. The wide portion is offset in an outward plate thickness direction with respect to the body portion.
