Advanced Locking Mechanism Technology
The volar radius plate incorporates state-of-the-art locking mechanism technology that represents a significant advancement in fracture fixation. This system features both fixed and variable-angle locking options, providing unprecedented flexibility in screw placement. The variable-angle technology allows screws to be placed within a 15-degree cone of angulation, enabling surgeons to optimize screw trajectory based on individual fracture patterns. The threading design ensures secure locking while preventing cross-threading, significantly reducing the risk of hardware failure. This advanced locking mechanism creates a stable fixed-angle construct that maintains reduction and promotes proper healing, particularly crucial in osteoporotic bone. The system's ability to combine conventional, fixed-angle, and variable-angle screws in a single plate provides maximum versatility for complex fracture patterns.
