Radius compression plate ExtremiLock™

wristdistallocking

The ExtremiLock Wrist Plating System includes the latest in variable-angle locking screw and plate technology to treat multiple reconstructive and trauma applications of the distal radius. Short Volar Distal Radius (VDR) Plate Designed to treat intra-articular fractures, the plate can be implanted with a smaller incision compared to a standard volar plate. Screw Placement The Short Volar Plate uses column screws that help provide more fixation points over a shorter plate distance. Universal Screws All screw holes are universally designed to accept both 2.4 mm & 2.7 mm screws. Cannulated Variable Angle Screw The cannulated double-lead locking compression screw is designed to capture dorsal fragments through a universal screw hole or as a compression screw outside of the plate. Variable Angle The locking screw head is designed to sit below the plate surface even at end-range angles. Variable locking angle ranges 2.4 mm screws: ±15 degrees 2.7 mm screws: ±10 degrees Pronator Quadratus (PQ) Sparing VDR Plate The PQ sparing plate allows for minimal dissection of the PQ muscle and accurate screw implantation using the spanning and bone centering drill guide. Screw placement is designed to help support the articular surface for simple to complex fractures.
