The Distal Humerus Safety Locking Plate is an advanced orthopedic fixation system designed for the treatment of complex distal humerus fractures involving the elbow joint. It is anatomically pre-contoured to match the natural shape of the distal humerus, ensuring precise fit, improved alignment, and strong biomechanical stability.
The “safety locking” design enhances screw fixation security by improving thread engagement between the plate and locking screws. This reduces the risk of screw back-out or loosening, especially in osteoporotic bone or highly comminuted fracture patterns. It provides a more stable and reliable construct for demanding orthopedic cases.
The locking compression system allows the use of compatible locking screws to create a fixed-angle construct, improving load distribution and maintaining fracture stability during the healing process. This is particularly important in weight-bearing and high-motion regions like the elbow.
Manufactured from premium surgical-grade titanium or stainless steel (depending on configuration), the implant offers excellent biocompatibility, corrosion resistance, and long-term durability. Precision-engineered screw holes ensure accurate placement and consistent surgical performance.
This plate is widely used in orthopedic trauma surgery, reconstructive procedures, and veterinary orthopedic applications for distal humerus and elbow fracture management in both small and large animals.
The system is fully sterilizable and supplied in organized surgical packaging for safe handling and efficient operating room workflow.
