The plates are pre-contoured to fit the patient’s anatomy, ensuring a better fit and reducing the need for extensive plate bending during surgery.
The system offers plates with various lengths and hole configurations, allowing surgeons to choose the appropriate plate based on the specific needs of each patient.
The screw holes in the plate allow for a range of angular freedom, with a ± 15° movement in all directions, enabling optimal screw placement.
The plates have rounded edges and a smooth surface, which helps to protect the surrounding soft tissues during the healing process.
The presence of oblong holes in the plate allows for variable positioning, giving surgeons flexibility in achieving optimal fracture fixation.
The plates incorporate a locking mechanism, enhancing construct stability and reducing the risk of screw back-out, which can lead to loss of fracture reduction.
The 2.4mm AV-Wiselock Distal Radius System Low-Profile Plates are indicated for the following conditions:
