Distal Radial Fracture

The OrthoLine™ radial fracture plate system includes 1.6 mm, 2.0 mm, 2.4 mm, 3.0 mm, and 3.5 mm sizes. Each plate is anatomically contoured to mimic the anatomy of patients within a given size range. The system is designed with multiplanar distal screw trajectories, and proximal screws are aligned centrally within the bone to improve screw pullout. Thinner than a standard T-plate or straight plate, this plate design allows less soft tissue interference. The tubular bottom enables better conformity to the patient’s bone structure and increases the area moment of inertia. This unique design also includes a fracture-spanning bridge with a sliding screw socket allowing compression across the fracture site, bending plugs, and several K-wire holes to assist in placement. The plates are designed for a cranial-medial placement, but a cranial-lateral placement can be used with the contralateral side.
