Titanium Distal Diaphyseal Radius Locking Plate | Volar Wrist & Shaft Fixation System

Overview of the Distal Diaphyseal Radius Locking Plate

In the field of orthopedic trauma, fractures affecting both the distal radius and the radial diaphysis present a unique challenge. OrthoPro introduces the Distal Diaphyseal Radius Locking Plate, a premium titanium implant designed to bridge the gap between the articular surface and the radial shaft. This comprehensive system addresses the need for extended fixation in segmental fractures, non-unions, and malunions, offering surgeons a reliable solution for complex upper extremity reconstruction.

Unlike standard volar plates that only address the metaphyseal region, our diaphyseal radius plate features an elongated shaft with a specific anatomical contour. This design mimics the natural bow of the radius, allowing for precise reduction without the need for excessive intraoperative bending. As a trusted partner for hospitals and distributors globally, OrthoPro ensures that every radius locking plate meets the highest standards of biomechanical stability and biocompatibility.

Advanced Biomechanics and Design Features

The OrthoPro Distal Diaphyseal Radius Locking Plate incorporates state-of-the-art locking technology to ensure optimal fracture healing:

• Anatomical Volar Fit: The plate is pre-contoured to fit the volar aspect of the distal radius and transitions smoothly onto the diaphysis. This low-profile design sits flush against the bone, significantly reducing the risk of flexor tendon irritation or rupture.
• Multi-Planar Distal Fixation: The distal head of the plate features a cluster of locking holes capable of accepting variable-angle or fixed-angle screws. This allows surgeons to capture specific bone fragments and support the articular surface, which is critical for preventing post-traumatic arthritis.
• Shaft Stability with Combi-Holes: The elongated shaft utilizes a combination hole design. Surgeons can choose between locking screws for angular stability (ideal for osteopenic bone) or cortex screws for dynamic compression and reduction of the fracture gap.
• Tapered Tip: The proximal end of the plate is tapered to facilitate minimally invasive insertion (MIPO techniques) and to reduce stress risers at the end of the implant, minimizing the risk of refractory fractures.

Clinical Indications

This versatile fixation system is indicated for a wide range of trauma scenarios where standard short plates are insufficient:

• Combined fractures of the distal radius and the radial diaphysis.
• Segmental fractures requiring bridging stabilization.
• Fixation of non-unions or malunions where a longer working length is required.
• Corrective osteotomies of the radius.
• Osteopenic bone where multiple shaft screws are needed to maximize pull-out strength.

Material and Quality Assurance

OrthoPro places safety and durability at the forefront of our manufacturing process. Our implants are crafted from medical-grade Titanium Alloy (Ti-6Al-4V) or pure Titanium, known for their exceptional strength-to-weight ratio and MRI compatibility. The surface is treated to enhance osseointegration and resistance to corrosion.

Technical Specifications

We offer a range of sizes to accommodate different patient anatomies. While custom solutions are available for bulk B2B orders, our standard configurations include:

• System Compatibility: Designed for use with 3.5mm locking/cortex screws in the shaft and 2.4mm/2.7mm locking screws in the distal head (System dependent).
• Plate Lengths: Available in varying lengths (e.g., 3-hole to 12-hole shaft options) to cover different fracture extensions.
• Orientation: Specific Left and Right anatomical designs.
• Thickness: Optimized profile to balance structural rigidity with soft tissue protection.
