The Distal Radius Volar Locking Plates (2 to 5 Holes Left/Right) with Screws are advanced orthopedic fixation implants used for the treatment of distal radius fractures involving the wrist joint. The volar (palm side) placement is widely preferred in modern orthopedic surgery due to improved biomechanical stability, reduced tendon irritation, and better surgical outcomes.
These plates are anatomically pre-contoured for left and right radius anatomy, ensuring precise fit, stable fixation, and restoration of proper wrist alignment. They are commonly used for intra-articular, extra-articular, comminuted, and unstable distal radius fractures.
The locking compression plate (LCP) system allows locking screws to securely engage within the plate holes, forming a fixed-angle construct that enhances stability, reduces screw loosening, and maintains fracture reduction even in osteoporotic bone conditions.
The plate is available in 2 to 5 hole configurations, making it suitable for different fracture patterns and surgical requirements. The low-profile design minimizes soft tissue irritation and reduces tendon-related complications while maintaining strong biomechanical support.
Manufactured from premium surgical-grade stainless steel or titanium (depending on configuration), the implant offers excellent strength, corrosion resistance, and long-term biocompatibility. Precision-engineered screw holes ensure accurate placement and reliable surgical performance.
This system is widely used in orthopedic trauma surgery and veterinary orthopedic procedures for distal radius fracture management.
The implant is fully sterilizable and supplied in professional surgical packaging for safe handling and efficient operating room workflow.
