The Dorsal Locking Distal Radius Variable Angle L Plate with Screws is a specialized orthopedic implant system used for fixation of fractures involving the distal radius near the wrist joint. The dorsal placement design provides strong support along the back side of the radius, making it suitable for complex fracture patterns requiring rigid stabilization and anatomical reconstruction.
The L-shaped plate configuration is specifically designed to support periarticular fracture fragments while maintaining wrist alignment and joint stability. It is commonly used for intra-articular, comminuted, and unstable distal radius fractures where precise fragment fixation is essential.
The variable angle locking technology allows surgeons to insert locking screws at different angles within the plate holes, enabling customized screw placement according to fracture anatomy and bone quality. Once locked, the construct forms a fixed-angle system that enhances fracture stability and minimizes screw loosening.
The locking compression plate (LCP) system provides strong mechanical support while helping maintain reduction during the healing process, especially in osteoporotic and small fragment fractures.
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.
The low-profile anatomical design helps minimize tendon irritation and soft tissue complications while maintaining strong biomechanical fixation.
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.
