Acu-Loc Dorsal Plates

Acumed's Acu-Loc Dorsal Plates are designed for complex injuries that need to be addressed from the dorsal side of the radius. The strength of the distal cage of screws - with fixed angle locking technology - supports the fracture during healing.

Key Features

• Anatomic plate design: Acumed's low-profile, anatomically contoured plates assist in restoring the original geometry of the patient's anatomy. The system's left and right-specific plate options match the anatomic curvature of the dorsal distal radius.
• Dorsal approach: The surgeon can visualize the fracture and use the plate to buttress the dorsal fragments for a simplified reduction. The plate's proximal portion is placed just radial to the convex surface of the radial shaft.
• Minimal irritation: Soft tissue irritation and hardware prominence are reduced by the plate's dorsal lateral positioning, low-profile design and screw interface.
• Advanced radiolucent target guide: Acumed's low-profile guide allows the surgeon to target each of the distal screws. Drilling, measuring and inserting the screw through the guide saves valuable OR time.
