T-Shaped Phalangeal Locking Plate

Specification

Description

The T-Shaped Phalangeal Locking Plate is a titanium alloy internal fixation implant designed for stabilization of phalangeal fractures, particularly those involving the distal and articular regions. Its T-shaped configuration provides extended coverage at the distal end, allowing effective fixation of small bone fragments and improved support of the joint surface.
This locking plate system is used with locking screws to achieve angular stable fixation. It is suitable for both simple and complex fracture patterns where maintaining alignment and precise reconstruction of the phalangeal anatomy are essential for functional recovery.

Advantages

Titanium alloy construction: Excellent biocompatibility, corrosion resistance, and reliable strength for small bone fixation
T-shaped design: Enhances distal fragment coverage and supports articular surface stabilization
Locking screw technology: Provides angular stability and reduces the risk of fixation failure
Multi-directional screw placement: Allows effective fixation of small and complex fracture fragments
Low-profile structure: Minimizes soft tissue irritation and improves postoperative comfort
Adaptable application: Can be contoured intraoperatively for precise anatomical fit

Application

Phalangeal fractures (proximal, middle, and distal phalanges)
Intra-articular phalangeal fractures
Comminuted or multi-fragment fractures
Fractures requiring distal fragment stabilization
Osteoporotic small bone fractures
Open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) procedures

FAQ

Q1: What is the advantage of the T-shaped design?
A1: It provides better distal coverage and allows multiple screw placements for stabilizing small and articular fracture fragments.
Q2: Is this plate suitable for intra-articular fractures?
A2: Yes. It is commonly used in intra-articular fractures where precise joint surface reconstruction is required.
Q3: What material is used in this implant?
A3: The plate is manufactured from medical-grade titanium alloy, ensuring strength, durability, and excellent biocompatibility.
