Abstract
A set of at least two osteosynthesis plates (2g, 2h) for implantation, anatomical reduction and internal splinting of bone fragments, in particular after fractures of the distal humerus. The two osteosynthesis plates (2g, 2h) according to the invention are provided with drilled holes (3a, 3b, 3c) which are arranged or formed so that the bone crews (12) passing through them come to rest in different directions in space, so that bone screws (12) can pass more completely than in the past through the bone space of the splinted bone (1).
