2.7mm Mini Locking Oblique L Plate (Left/Right) | Small Fragment Hand & Foot System | OrthoPro

Advanced Solution for Peri-Articular Small Bone Fractures

At OrthoPro, we are dedicated to advancing the standard of care in orthopedic trauma through high-quality manufacturing and precision engineering. The 2.7mm Mini Locking Oblique L Plate is a standout component of our Small Fragment System. Designed specifically for the complex anatomy of the hand, wrist, and foot, this implant addresses the challenge of fixing fractures near the joint line (peri-articular) where bone fragments are small and difficult to secure with standard implants.

Unlike standard right-angle plates, the Oblique L-Plate features a head angled specifically to match the sloping anatomy of the metacarpal and metatarsal condyles. This design allows for the capture of specific bone fragments while maintaining a low-profile construct that reduces the risk of tendon adhesion and soft tissue irritation.

Design Features and Clinical Benefits

Our 2.7mm Mini Locking Oblique L Plate is crafted to support surgeons in achieving rigid fixation and early mobilization for their patients. Key features include:

• Anatomical Oblique Geometry: Available in both Left and Right configurations, the oblique head angulation is optimized to fit the metaphyseal flare of small long bones, reducing the need for intraoperative plate bending.
• Locking Technology: The plate holes feature threads that lock with the screw heads, creating a fixed-angle construct. This is critical for osteopenic bone or multi-fragmentary fractures where screw purchase is often compromised.
• Combi-Hole Versatility: The shaft holes are designed to accept both 2.7mm locking screws (for stability) and 2.7mm cortical screws (for compression), giving the surgeon flexibility based on the fracture pattern.
• Minimal Soft Tissue Contact: The underside of the plate is designed to limit contact with the periosteum, preserving the blood supply essential for bone healing.
• Tapered Tip: The proximal end of the plate is tapered to facilitate sub-muscular insertion, making it suitable for Minimally Invasive Plate Osteosynthesis (MIPO) techniques.

Material Specifications

To ensure biocompatibility and mechanical strength, the mini locking oblique L plate is manufactured from premium materials adhering to ISO and ASTM standards:

• Titanium Alloy (Ti-6Al-4V): The preferred choice for its superior strength-to-weight ratio, excellent biocompatibility, and compatibility with MRI imaging.
• Medical Grade Stainless Steel (316LVM): Offers high yield strength and economic efficiency for trauma centers.

Technical Parameters

Our plates are compatible with standard AO-type 2.7mm instrument sets. Below are the detailed specifications for the 2.7mm Mini Locking Oblique L Plate:

Indications for Use

This implant is indicated for the fixation of fractures, osteotomies, and non-unions in small bones, particularly where the fracture line enters the joint or involves the metaphysis. Common applications include:

• Metacarpal Fractures: Base or head fractures of the metacarpals where the oblique shape fits the condyles.
• Phalangeal Fractures: Proximal phalanx fractures requiring stable internal fixation.
• Metatarsal Fractures: Distal metatarsal fractures in the foot.
• Distal Radius & Ulna: Specific fragment fixation (e.g., radial styloid) in complex wrist trauma.
