Proximal Radius Locking Plate II – Radial Neck & Head Fracture Fixation System | Orthopedic Trauma Implants

The OrthoPro Proximal Radius Locking Plate II is expertly engineered for the internal fixation of fractures in the radial neck and head. Featuring an anatomical contour that respects the “safe zone” of the proximal radius, this proximal radius locking plate minimizes soft tissue interference while providing rigid stability. Our proximal radius locking plate system utilizes 2.4mm and 2.7mm screws, offering versatile solutions for complex elbow trauma.

Advanced Solution for Radial Neck and Head Fractures

Welcome to OrthoPro, a leading provider of high-quality orthopedic solutions for the global B2B market. The Proximal Radius Locking Plate II is a specialized trauma implant designed to address the unique anatomical challenges of the elbow joint. Fractures of the proximal radius, particularly those affecting the radial neck and head, require precise fixation to restore forearm rotation and elbow stability. Our system provides surgeons with the tools necessary to achieve optimal anatomical reduction and stable fixation.

The OrthoPro Proximal Radius Locking Plate II features a pre-contoured low-profile design. This is critical in the proximal forearm, where soft tissue coverage is thin and the risk of impingement is high. By adhering closely to the bone surface, our plates reduce the likelihood of tendon irritation and facilitate earlier patient mobilization.

Design Philosophy and Features

Our engineering team focuses on biomechanical stability and surgical efficiency. The Proximal Radius Locking Plate II incorporates several advanced features:

  • Anatomical Shape: The plate is pre-bent to fit the lateral aspect of the proximal radius. This specific contour targets the “safe zone”—an area of the radial head where implant placement does not impinge on the proximal radioulnar joint during rotation.
  • Dual Screw Diameter System: The proximal head of the plate accepts 2.4mm locking screws to secure small bone fragments in the radial head. The shaft accepts 2.7mm locking or cortical screws, providing strong anchorage in the radial shaft.
  • Locking Technology: The angular stability provided by the locking screws creates a load-sharing construct. This is particularly beneficial in osteoporotic bone or comminuted fractures where traditional screw purchase is compromised.
  • Versatile Hole Configuration: The combi-holes in the shaft allow for compression or locking, giving the surgeon flexibility based on the fracture pattern.
  • Low Profile: The plate thickness and screw head prominence are minimized to prevent irritation of the overlying supinator muscle and lateral collateral ligament complex.

Indications for Use

The OrthoPro Proximal Radius Locking Plate II is indicated for a range of trauma patterns, including:

  • Fractures of the radial neck.
  • Fractures of the radial head (Mason Type II and III).
  • Intra-articular and extra-articular proximal radius fractures.
  • Reconstruction of non-unions or malunions of the proximal radius.
  • Multi-fragmentary fractures requiring buttress plating.

Why Choose OrthoPro for Your Inventory?

At OrthoPro, we understand that medical distributors and hospitals require more than just a product; they need a reliable partner. We specialize in serving the B2B market outside of China, ensuring that our orthopedic trauma implants meet the rigorous demands of modern surgery.

Supply Chain Reliability: We maintain a robust inventory of Proximal Radius Locking Plates to ensure rapid fulfillment of orders. Whether you are stocking a trauma center or distributing to a network of hospitals, we guarantee consistent availability.

Quality Assurance: Every plate and screw undergoes stringent inspection. Our Titanium alloy is sourced for its superior strength-to-weight ratio and excellent MRI compatibility, which is essential for post-operative assessment.

Surgical Technique Overview

The application of the Proximal Radius Locking Plate II typically involves a lateral approach to the elbow (Kaplan or Kocher). Identifying the “safe zone” is crucial—this is a 90-degree arc on the radial head that does not articulate with the ulna. Our plates are designed to fit precisely within this zone. The ability to use locking screws in a diverging pattern allows for a “raft” of support under the articular surface, preventing subsidence of fracture fragments.
