The PHILOS Proximal Humerus Plates 3–7 Holes are advanced orthopedic implants designed for the treatment of fractures involving the upper end of the humerus near the shoulder joint. These plates are anatomically pre-contoured to match the natural shape of the proximal humerus, ensuring accurate fit, stable fixation, and proper restoration of shoulder anatomy.
This system is widely used for fixation of complex fractures including multi-fragmentary, displaced, and osteoporotic proximal humerus fractures. It provides strong biomechanical stability while supporting early mobilization of the shoulder joint.
The locking compression plate (LCP) technology allows locking screws to securely engage within the plate, creating a fixed-angle construct that enhances stability, reduces the risk of screw loosening, and maintains fracture reduction during healing.
The plate includes multiple screw hole options in the head region for optimal fixation of humeral head fragments, along with shaft holes (3 to 7 holes) for diaphyseal stabilization. This design provides flexibility for different fracture patterns and patient anatomy.
Manufactured from premium medical-grade titanium or stainless steel (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 implant system is widely used in orthopedic trauma surgery and veterinary orthopedic procedures for proximal humerus fracture management.
The set is fully sterilizable and supplied in professional surgical packaging for safe handling and efficient operating room workflow.
