Mean stiffness (S) for PHILOS and Fx plate constructs during elastic loading of 5 mm cantilever displacement in extension, flexion, valgus and varus directions. For each direction, stiffness is presented as the mean for five specimens (25 trials) in each construct group. A single asterisk (*) indicates p ≤ 0.05; and triple asterisks (***) indicate p ≤ 0.001
