Distal Radius Extra-Articular T-Type Locking Plate (4 Head Holes)

Specification

Description

The Distal Radius Extra-articular T-type Locking Plate (4 Head Holes) is a titanium alloy internal fixation implant designed specifically for extra-articular distal radius fractures. Its T-shaped configuration is anatomically contoured to fit the distal radius, providing stable support to the metaphyseal region while avoiding unnecessary coverage of the joint surface.
The plate head features a 4-hole design, allowing targeted placement of locking screws for effective fixation of the distal fragment. Combined with locking screw technology, this system provides angular stable fixation, helping maintain alignment and supporting functional recovery of the wrist.

Advantages

Titanium alloy construction: Excellent biocompatibility, corrosion resistance, and reliable mechanical strength
Extra-articular optimized design: Focuses on metaphyseal support without interfering with the joint surface
4-hole T-type head: Provides controlled screw placement for stable fixation of distal fragments
Locking screw system: Ensures angular stability and reduces the risk of fixation loss
Anatomical contouring: Improves fit to distal radius and reduces intraoperative bending
Efficient surgical handling: Simplified structure supports faster and more predictable fixation

Application

Extra-articular distal radius fractures
Metaphyseal distal radius fractures
Simple fracture patterns without articular involvement
Osteoporotic distal radius fractures
Trauma surgery requiring stable wrist fixation
Open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) procedures

FAQ

Q1: What is the benefit of the 4-hole head design?
A1: It allows precise and controlled placement of locking screws, providing stable fixation for extra-articular fracture patterns.
Q2: Is this plate suitable for intra-articular fractures?
A2: No. It is specifically designed for extra-articular fractures. Intra-articular fractures typically require plates with more complex head designs for fragment fixation.
Q3: What material is used in this implant?
A3: The plate is manufactured from medical-grade titanium alloy, offering strength, durability, and excellent biocompatibility.
