The Cobra Head Plate is a specialized orthopedic bone plate used for pelvic and hip reconstruction surgery. Surgeons rely on its distinctive cobra-head profile to achieve secure fixation to the ilium during acetabular and pelvic ring procedures. Sami’s Instruments manufactures this plate from 316LVM surgical-grade stainless steel, following strict quality control standards. Each plate ships ready for sterilization and immediate surgical use.
Design & Features
Cobra Head Profile
The flared, cobra-shaped head widens at one end to distribute load evenly across the ilium. This design reduces the risk of screw pull-out and improves long-term fixation stability. Surgeons use this feature during complex pelvic and hip arthrodesis procedures.
Dynamic Compression Holes
The plate shaft features evenly spaced holes that allow dynamic compression at the fracture site. This spacing promotes proper bone alignment and supports faster healing. Each hole accepts standard cortex screws for secure placement.
Left and Right Configurations
Sami’s Instruments produces the Cobra Head Plate in both left and right orientations. This ensures anatomically correct fit regardless of the surgical side. Surgeons can therefore select the exact configuration their procedure requires.
Multiple Hole Options
The plate is available from 4-hole through 14-hole configurations. Consequently, surgeons can match plate length to the specific fracture pattern and patient anatomy.
