Overview
Acu-Loc 2 Extension Plates
A Solution for the Diaphyseal Region
For distal radius fractures that extend into the diaphyseal region, the Acu-Loc 2 Plating System is unique in offering the ability to extend the lengths of the Acu‐Loc 2 Proximal VDR Plates and provide rigid fixation of segmental fractures.
The low-profile plate design and flush sitting locking and nonlocking screws minimize postoperative soft tissue irritation and patient discomfort. The proximal plate end is tapered to reduce the risk of secondary bone fracture due to excess stress concentrations. The plate’s limited bone contact undersurface reduces constriction of the blood supply to the periosteum.
The Acu-Loc 2 Extension Plates are rigidly locked with a LinkScrew to the following Acu‐Loc 2 Proximal Volar Distal Radius (VDR) Plates:
- Acu-Loc 2 Proximal VDR Standard Long Plates
- Acu-Loc 2 Proximal VDR Narrow Long Plates
- Acu-Loc 2 Proximal VDR Wide Plates
