A Lateral view of tibia specimen mounted in poly-methyl-methacrylate prior to mechanical testing. B Caudal view of tibia specimen utilized for model illustration. C and D Cranial and lateral views of tibia specimens mounted in mechanical testing system prior to compression testing. In all specimens, the 1 cm segmental ostectomy is stabilized using an 18 cm (A and B) or 14 cm (C and D) 316 stainless steel low contact round double threaded 8-hole, 4.5-mm thick locking plate applied in a bridging fashion with four bicortical locking screws proximal to the defect and four distal
