The Locking Variable Angle Distal Radius Volar Plates with Screws Set (Titanium) is a modern orthopedic implant system used for fixation of distal radius fractures involving the wrist joint. It is anatomically pre-contoured for volar (palm-side) placement, ensuring precise fit along the natural curvature of the radius and restoring proper wrist alignment and function.
This system features variable-angle locking technology, allowing screws to be inserted at different angles within the locking plate. This provides enhanced flexibility for capturing complex fracture fragments, especially in intra-articular, comminuted, and osteoporotic fractures where standard fixed-angle plates may not achieve optimal fixation.
The locking compression mechanism forms a rigid fixed-angle construct between the screws and plate, improving overall stability, maintaining reduction, and minimizing the risk of screw loosening or implant failure during the healing process.
The low-profile anatomical design helps reduce irritation to surrounding tendons and soft tissues of the wrist while maintaining high mechanical strength. Multiple screw hole configurations allow surgeons to customize fixation based on fracture pattern and patient anatomy.
Manufactured from premium medical-grade titanium, the implant offers excellent strength, corrosion resistance, and biocompatibility. Its lightweight properties also improve patient comfort and long-term tolerance.
This system is widely used in orthopedic trauma surgery and veterinary orthopedic procedures for distal radius and wrist fracture management.
The implant set is fully sterilizable and supplied in professional surgical packaging for safe handling and efficient operating room workflow.
