The VA Distal Lateral Radius Locking Plate is an advanced orthopedic implant designed to provide stable fixation for distal radius fractures, especially when lateral approach fixation is required. Its Variable Angle (VA) locking holes allow for multidirectional screw placement within a fixed angular stability, giving surgeons flexibility in managing complex fracture patterns.

Manufactured from surgical-grade stainless steel, this plate combines mechanical strength with a 2.0mm thickness and a 6.7mm width, ensuring minimal soft tissue interference while providing robust structural support. Its anatomical contour is designed to fit the lateral surface of the distal radius, facilitating optimal fracture reduction and stability.

Technical Features & Specifications:

• Material: Surgical-grade Stainless Steel (Corrosion-resistant, Biocompatible)

• Screw Compatibility: 2.4mm/2.7mm Universal Locking Screws, 2.7mm Cortical Screws

• Variable Angle Locking Technology: Allows screw angulation for adaptable fixation strategies.

• Plate Thickness: 2.0mm (Low-profile to minimize soft tissue irritation)

• Plate Width: 6.7mm

• Surface Finish: Polished corrosion-resistant surface

• Hole Configurations: 5 Holes, 6 Holes

• Available Lengths: 47mm, 55mm

Clinical Applications & Uses:

• Fixation of distal radius fractures, including intra-articular and extra-articular patterns.

• Treatment of metaphyseal and osteoporotic fractures of the distal radius.

• Provides angular stability in comminuted or unstable distal radius fractures.

• Ideal for lateral approach fixation to avoid volar soft tissue complications.

• Used in both acute trauma and reconstructive wrist surgeries.

Advantages & Benefits:

• Anatomically Contoured Design: Eliminates need for extensive plate bending, ensuring precise bone fit.

• Variable Angle Locking Holes: Allows flexible screw positioning while maintaining fixed-angle stability.

• Low-profile Plate Design: Reduces the risk of tendon irritation and soft tissue complications.

• Enhanced Fracture Stabilization: Ensures secure fixation for complex fracture patterns with multidirectional screw placement.

• Multiple Size Options: Accommodates various patient anatomies and fracture lengths.

• Radiolucent-friendly Design: Facilitates post-operative imaging for clear assessment of fracture healing.

Available Configurations & Sizes:

The VA Distal Lateral Radius Locking Plate is essential for orthopedic trauma surgeons requiring a versatile fixation solution for challenging distal radius fractures. Its variable angle technology enhances fixation adaptability, while its anatomical contour ensures a reliable and precise fit.
