In most cases, plate removal is recommended one year after fracture surgery, and radiographs are performed prior to plate removal. First of all, it should be clear that the fracture has reached clinical healing and that the fracture is strong enough before the plate removal surgery can be performed. It is generally not recommended to remove the plate two years or even longer after the fracture, because the longer the plate is implanted in the body, the more difficult it is to remove it, and the screws on the plate will completely fuse with the human bone. Therefore, it is very easy to cause slippage of the screw end caps when taking out the screws, and sometimes it can even be difficult to take out the internal fixation.
