Versatile Fixation for Small Bone Trauma: 2.4 mm Mini Locking Plate

At OrthoPro, we are committed to delivering high-precision orthopedic solutions to global medical distributors and healthcare providers. Our 2.4 mm Mini Locking Plate is a cornerstone of our Mini Fragment System, designed to address a wide range of fractures in small bones. Whether treating trauma in the upper extremities or corrective surgeries in the foot, this implant system offers the rigidity and adaptability surgeons require.

Advanced Biomechanics and Stability

The 2.4 mm Mini Locking Plate features a sophisticated locking mechanism that creates a stable, fixed-angle construct. This is particularly critical in cases of osteopenic bone or comminuted fractures where screw purchase is often compromised. Unlike conventional compression plates that rely on friction between the plate and the bone, the locking screws in our system thread directly into the plate.

This “internal fixator” approach minimizes the pressure applied to the periosteum, preserving the local blood supply essential for rapid bone healing. The 2.4mm system strikes an optimal balance between profile height and mechanical strength, making it stronger than 2.0mm micro plates yet less invasive than 2.7mm or 3.5mm systems.

Key Features and Surgical Benefits

• Low-Profile Design: The plate features a reduced thickness and tapered ends to minimize implant prominence. This is crucial for areas with thin soft tissue coverage, such as the distal ulna or the dorsum of the foot, helping to prevent tendon irritation.
• Combi-Hole Technology: The design allows for the placement of locking screws for stability or standard cortical screws for compression within the same shaft holes, providing intraoperative flexibility.
• Anatomical Contouring: While the standard plate is straight, it is manufactured with a degree of malleability that allows surgeons to contour the plate to the specific anatomy of the patient without compromising the locking mechanism integrity.
• Rounded Edges: To further protect soft tissues, all edges are rounded and polished to a smooth finish.

Clinical Indications

The 2.4 mm Mini Locking Plate is indicated for the fixation of fractures, osteotomies, non-unions, and replantations of small bones. Common applications include:

• Upper Extremity: Fractures of the distal ulna, radial head, and metacarpals.
• Lower Extremity: Distal fibula fractures, metatarsals, and forefoot osteotomies.
• Pediatric Surgery: Fixation of small long bones in pediatric patients where larger implants are not suitable.
• Veterinary Orthopedics: Widely used for fracture repair in small animals.

Technical Specifications

OrthoPro ensures that all implants meet rigorous international manufacturing standards. The 2.4 mm Mini Locking Plate is compatible with standard 2.4mm locking and cortical screws. Below are the standard specifications for this series:

Material Excellence

OrthoPro implants are crafted from medical-grade Titanium Alloy (Ti-6Al-4V) or Stainless Steel. Titanium is preferred for its superior biocompatibility, lighter weight, and MRI compatibility, reducing artifacts in post-operative imaging.

Global B2B Partnership
