During torsion stress simulation a decrease of the value of the maximal stress in the lateral hinge was also observed with the addition of a hinge-securing screw (37 MPa without screw, 27Mpa with a 2 mm screw and 25 Mpa with a 4 mm screw). INTERPRETATION Positioning a screw intersecting the cutting plane at the theoretical lateral hinge location associated with a locking plate reduces lateral hinge stress in both compression and torsion. Those findings need to be confirmed by further specimens' mechanical testing. Paeonia ostii is an
