Overview

Kangli Orthopaedics supplies the Dorsal Distal Radial Locking Plate in pure titanium for dorsal distal radius fracture fixation. Available in left- and right-sided configurations, the plate features a curved terminal offset and a longitudinal series of rounded locking apertures. Its layout is intended for positioning along the dorsal aspect of the distal radius, with fixation points extending from the distal section into the plate shaft.

Side-Specific Contouring for the Distal Radius

The left and right versions use oppositely oriented curves at the plate end. This side-specific configuration allows selection according to the forearm being addressed, without relying on a contralateral plate shape for adaptation.

Longitudinal Locking Aperture Layout

The main plate bar contains regularly spaced circular apertures surrounded by rounded, enlarged profiles. The aperture row extends through the curved distal section and along the shaft, creating a longitudinal arrangement for compatible locking screw positions.

Waisted Bridges Between Screw Openings

Shallow waisted bridges connect the enlarged aperture surrounds while maintaining a continuous plate body between adjacent openings. Each screw site remains visually defined, and the plate transitions from the offset end toward the rounded terminal section through a gently irregular contour.

Dorsal Distal Radius Fixation Applications

  • Dorsal distal radius fracture fixation
  • Dorsal-side plate positioning along the distal radius
  • Selection of a left- or right-sided forearm plate
  • Locking screw placement through the longitudinal aperture row

Within the forearm plate catalogue, this dorsal configuration can be reviewed alongside the Distal Radial Buttress Locking Plate when comparing distal radius surfaces, plate contours, and aperture layouts.
