Locking Plate Multi Axial for Distal Radius Fracture Orthopedic Surgery Implants

The Variable Angle LCP Two-Column Volar Distal Radius Plate featuring variable angle locking technology, is indicated for intra- and extra-articular fractures and osteotomies of the distal radius. All implants are available in stainless steel and titanium.

Distal radius fracture is a common trauma in the elderly because of the high frequency of osteoporosis in this age group. Hand and forearm fractures accounted for a significant portion of emergency department visits. The majority of distal radius fractures occur as isolated injuries in two distinct populations: youth involved in sports with high-energy falls, and seniors with osteoporotic bones with low-energy falls.
