Mini Fragment Plate
Free!
Mini Fragment Plates are low-profile orthopedic implants designed for stable fixation of small bones and fine fracture lines in the hand, wrist, foot, and similar anatomical regions. Their multi-hole configuration allows secure screw placement and precise alignment, helping support early mobilization and reliable healing. Ideal for trauma, reconstructive, and hand surgery, they combine stability, versatility, and patient comfort in demanding clinical cases.
Description
Mini Fragment Plates are specialized orthopedic implants engineered for the fixation of small bones and fine fracture patterns, particularly in the hand, wrist, forefoot, ankle, and certain maxillofacial regions. These plates provide stable internal fixation while maintaining a low profile, helping reduce irritation to surrounding soft tissues and allowing patients to regain function with confidence.
Manufactured from high-quality biocompatible metal alloys, Mini Fragment Plates feature multiple precisely positioned holes along the shaft and head of the plate. This design permits versatile screw placement and supports techniques such as compression, neutralization, and bridging, depending on the fracture configuration. Many compatible systems can be used with both locking and non-locking screws, which is especially beneficial in osteoporotic or small, delicate bone where secure purchase is critical.
Key Features & Benefits:
-
Low-profile design to minimize tendon and soft-tissue irritation
-
Multiple-hole configuration for flexible and secure screw placement
-
Excellent stability for small fragments and complex intra-articular fractures
-
Supports anatomical reduction, alignment, and early mobilization
-
Suitable for trauma, reconstructive, and corrective procedures across orthopedic and hand surgery
Typical Applications:
-
Phalangeal and metacarpal fractures
-
Distal radius and carpal fractures
-
Forefoot and midfoot fractures
-
Small fragment fixation in revision or corrective procedures
Compared with standard large-fragment plates, Mini Fragment Plates are optimized for precision work in narrow anatomical spaces, offering better contouring, less bulk, and improved patient comfort while maintaining high mechanical reliability when used as part of a compatible system.
