The LCP Distal Humerus Medial Metaphyseal Plate 3.5mm is an advanced orthopedic fixation implant designed for the treatment of fractures involving the medial metaphyseal region of the distal humerus near the elbow joint. The plate is anatomically pre-contoured to fit the medial side of the distal humerus, ensuring accurate alignment, improved stability, and optimal fracture support.
This plate is specifically engineered for metaphyseal fracture fixation where precise anatomical reduction and strong mechanical support are essential. The low-profile anatomical design minimizes soft tissue irritation while maintaining excellent fixation strength around the elbow region.
The locking compression plate (LCP) system allows secure fixation using 3.5mm locking and cortical screws, creating a fixed-angle construct that enhances stability and reduces the risk of screw loosening. This is especially beneficial in osteoporotic bone and comminuted fracture patterns.
Manufactured from premium surgical-grade titanium or stainless steel (depending on configuration), the implant provides excellent biocompatibility, corrosion resistance, and long-term durability. Precision-engineered screw holes ensure accurate placement and dependable surgical performance.
This plate is widely used in orthopedic trauma surgery, reconstructive procedures, and veterinary orthopedic applications for distal humerus fracture management in both small and large animals.
The implant is fully sterilizable and supplied in organized orthopedic packaging for safe handling and efficient surgical workflow.
