Locking Distal Femur Plates

Categories: ,

Our Anatomical Locking Distal Femur Plates are maximum-strength, low-profile orthopedic implants engineered for the rigid internal fixation of complex fractures of the distal femur. Specifically designed to address supracondylar, intercondylar, and distal diaphyseal femoral fractures, these plates are available in distinct Left and Right configurations. Each plate is meticulously pre-contoured to match the natural anatomical profile of the lateral distal femur, streamlining surgical alignment and saving valuable intraoperative time.

Crafted from medical-grade, highly electropolished Surgical Stainless Steel 316L or Premium Titanium Alloy, the plate features a widely flared distal head. This head cluster is engineered with a multi-planar array of locking screw holes to capture and stabilize articular fragments, creating a secure subchondral raft. The structural plate shaft incorporates advanced combi-holes (locking/compression combination holes), giving surgeons the biomechanical flexibility to construct a highly rigid fixed-angle frame or apply standard dynamic axial compression.

Key Features & Benefits

  • Anatomically Pre-Contoured Geometries: Distinctly engineered variations for Left and Right limbs ensure an optimal, close fit against the lateral femoral condyle, minimizing the need for manual intraoperative contouring.

  • Multi-Planar Head Fixation Cluster: Flared distal head accommodates multiple divergent locking screws to secure articular fragments and provide superior resistance against varus collapse under physiological loads.

  • Advanced Shaft Combi-Holes: Symmetrical combination holes accept threaded locking screws for absolute structural rigidity or smooth-sloped cortical screws for standard axial compression.

  • Fixed-Angle Construct Security: Threaded screw-to-plate locking prevents screw back-out and hardware loosening, providing critical stability in highly comminuted fractures or severely osteoporotic bone tissue.

  • Tissue-Friendly Tapered Border: Low-profile thickness, rounded outer margins, and a smooth electropolished surface finish drastically reduce friction against the iliotibial band and surrounding soft musculature.
