Internal fixation refers to fixation of screws and/or plates.Plates are like internal splints that hold the broken pieces of bone together. They are attached to the bone with screws. Plates may be left in place after healing is complete, or they may be removed (in select cases).
Screws are used for internal fixation more often than any other type of implant. Although the screw is a simple device, there are different designs based on the type of fracture and how the screw will be used. Screws come in different sizes for use with bones of different sizes. Screws can be used alone to hold a fracture, as well as with plates, rods, or nails. After the bone heals, screws may be either left in place or removed.

The global Plates and Screws size is estimated to be USD 6145 million in 2026 from USD 5326.9 million in 2020. The global Plates and Screws market size is expected to grow at a CAGR of 3.6% for 2021 to 2026.
