The Dorsal Locking Distal Radius Straight Plate with Screws Set (Stainless Steel) is a specialized orthopedic implant system used for the fixation of distal radius fractures through a dorsal (back of wrist) approach. It is designed to provide stable anatomical alignment and rigid fixation in complex wrist fractures.
The straight dorsal plate design allows effective stabilization of dorsal fracture fragments, making it suitable for intra-articular, comminuted, and displaced distal radius fractures where dorsal access is preferred. It helps restore proper wrist alignment and supports functional recovery.
The locking compression plate (LCP) system allows locking screws to securely engage within the plate, forming a fixed-angle construct that improves stability and reduces the risk of screw loosening. This ensures maintained fracture reduction even under functional load.
The low-profile design helps minimize irritation to extensor tendons and surrounding soft tissues while maintaining high structural strength. Multiple screw hole options allow surgeons to adapt fixation according to fracture pattern and patient anatomy.
Manufactured from premium surgical-grade stainless steel, the implant provides excellent durability, strength, and corrosion resistance. Precision-engineered screw holes ensure accurate placement and consistent intraoperative performance.
This system is widely used in orthopedic trauma surgery and veterinary orthopedic procedures for distal radius fracture management.
The set is fully sterilizable and supplied in professional surgical packaging for safe handling and efficient operating room workflow.
