About Extra Articular Distal Humerus Plate

An Extra Articular Distal Humerus Plate is a type of medical implant used in orthopedic surgery for the treatment of fractures and other injuries involving the distal (lower) end of the humerus bone in the arm, specifically for fractures that do not extend into the elbow joint (extra-articular fractures). Extra Articular Distal Humerus Plate plate is designed to provide stability and support to the fractured bone fragments, allowing for proper alignment and facilitating the healing process.

Anatomic Design and Surgical Flexibility

Each plate is pre-contoured to the anatomical curve of the distal humerus, supporting an accurate fit and optimum fracture stabilization. The radiolucent window in the design allows for clear intraoperative imaging, crucial for proper screw placement and fracture reduction.

Material Quality and Surface Finish Options

Manufactured from premium grade steel with options for highly polished or titanium anodized surfaces, these plates maximize corrosion resistance while ensuring biocompatibility. With sterilization by gamma radiation, ETO, or autoclaving, product safety and sterility are assured.

Versatile Compatibility and Configurations

Offered in models with 6 to 14 holes, this implant accommodates both locking and non-locking screws. Multiple sizes and both left and right-side configurations ensure an appropriate solution for varied patient anatomies. Plates are recyclable and designed for ease of handling during orthopedic trauma procedures.

FAQ's of Extra Articular Distal Humerus Plate:

Q: How is the Extra Articular Distal Humerus Plate used during surgery?

A: The plate is positioned along the distal humerus shaft to span extra-articular fractures. Its pre-contoured shape conforms to humeral anatomy, and variable-angle holes allow secure fixation with either locking or non-locking screws. Surgeons utilize a compatible locking plate instrumentation set for precise insertion.

Q: What are the benefits of the radiolucent window in this plate?

A: The radiolucent window enables surgeons to obtain clear intraoperative X-ray images, ensuring accurate visualization and placement of the plate and screws during fixation. This feature aids in reducing the risk of improper screw positioning or fixation errors.

Q: When should this implant be considered for a patient?

A: This plate is indicated specifically for extra-articular fractures of the distal humerus shaft where maintaining anatomical alignment and stable fixation is crucial. Surgeons select the appropriate plate size and side (left or right) based on the fracture pattern and patient anatomy.

Q: What types of screws are compatible with this humerus plate?

A: The plate is engineered for use with standard 3.5 mm or 4.5 mm cortical or cancellous locking screws, offering versatility in fixation options to match the clinical scenario and bone quality.

Q: Where is this orthopedic implant typically used?

A: It is primarily used in hospital operating rooms for trauma surgeries involving the distal humerus. The plate's flexibility and different configurations make it suitable for various patient anatomies and fracture complexities.

Q: How is the plate sterilized before use?

A: Each plate undergoes thorough sterilization via gamma radiation, ethylene oxide (ETO), or autoclaving to ensure the highest safety and reduce the risk of postoperative infections.

Q: What advantages does the highly polished or titanium anodized surface finish provide?

A: Both finishes enhance the plate's corrosion resistance, extend its longevity within the body, and lower the risk of adverse tissue interactions, contributing to improved patient safety and implant reliability.
