2.7mm Locking Plate Distal Lateral Radius two-plate technique offers a strong construct for complex distal radius fractures and avoids removal of Lister’s tubercle.
Straight plates are contoured to fit the radial column and have a notched tip that allows them to fit on the radial styloid, adjacent to a
temporary K-wire fixation.
Locking Compression Plates (LCP) have Combi holes which allow locking screw fixation in the threaded section or compression in the non-threaded section of the hole.
Locking screws offer a fixed-angle construct to support the articular surface, reduce the need for bone graft, and obtain fixation in osteoporotic bone.
Low plate-and-screw profile minimizes potential for tendon and soft tissue irritation..
Rounded edges minimize potential for tendon adhesion.
Smaller plates and screws address fracture fragments individually, with less overall implant bulk.
2.7mm Locking Plate Distal Lateral Radius is used or fixation of complex intra and extra-articular fractures and osteotomies of the distal radius and other small bones.
