OrthoLine™ Radial Fracture System

The Arthrex OrthoLine™ radial fracture plate system includes 1.6 mm, 2.0 mm, 2.4 mm, 3.0 mm, and 3.5 mm sizes. Each plate is anatomically contoured to mimic the anatomy of patients within a given size range. The system is designed with multiplanar distal screw trajectories and proximal screws centrally aligned within the bone to improve screw pullout. The plates are thinner than a standard T-plate or straight plate, providing less soft tissue interference. The tubular bottom enables better conformity to the patient’s bone structure and increases the area moment of inertia. This unique design also includes a fracture-spanning bridge with a compression screw hole providing compression across the fracture site, bending plugs, and several k-wire holes to assist in preliminary placement. The plates are designed for a cranial-medial placement, but a cranial-lateral placement can be used with the contralateral side plate.

Features and Benefits

  • Multiplanar distal screws
  • Proximal screw trajectories to align centrally in the bone
  • Designed for distal radial fractures
  • Anatomic plate design with left and right options
  • High screw density where needed
  • Tapered design to avoid soft tissue irritation
  • Compression hole
  • Fracture-spanning bridge
  • Two placement options
