Abstract
This study failed to confirm our hypothesis that a dynamic plate (that allows angular motion between the screws and plate) confers any clinical or radiographic advantage over earlier design static plates. A higher rate of nonunion was actually seen in the dynamically plated patients; however, clinical results were similar between the two groups.
