The Distal Lateral Humerus Locking Plate is designed for stable internal fixation of distal humerus fractures, particularly those involving the lateral column.
The plate features an anatomically contoured, low-profile design with multiple locking screw options to support angular-stable fixation. Its 20° conical threaded holes engage with compatible locking screws to form a fixed-angle construct, providing secure fixation for complex and osteoporotic fracture patterns.
The implant is manufactured from TA3G pure titanium or TC4 titanium alloy, combining the material properties required for orthopedic fixation with biocompatibility and mechanical strength.
The 20° conical threaded locking holes are compatible with locking compression screws and provide a secure plate-screw interface for angular-stable fixation.
Sharp self-tapping screw threads facilitate screw insertion and help simplify the implantation procedure.
The plate is anatomically pre-shaped to the distal humerus and incorporates rounded edges and a low-profile structure to help minimize soft-tissue irritation.
The anodized surface treatment contributes to corrosion resistance and facilitates implant identification.
Cortex screws feature spherical heads that allow eccentric insertion to provide axial compression when required.
The system includes screws in various diameters, ranging from Ø1.5 mm to Ø7.3 mm, with corresponding thread depths for different cortical or cancellous bone applications.
The locking screw-plate interface provides angular stability and supports fixation of complex fracture patterns and fractures involving osteoporotic bone.
The locking mechanism secures the screws to the plate without requiring direct compression of the plate against the bone, helping limit interference with the periosteal interface.
The smooth polished surface and anatomically contoured profile are designed to reduce soft-tissue irritation and minimize implant prominence.
Self-tapping screw tips facilitate insertion and help streamline the surgical workflow.
The locking configuration provides broad angular coverage, allowing screw positioning to be adapted to the fracture pattern and available bone.
The screw thread design provides an increased bone-screw interface area to support secure fixation and construct stability.
