Home > Anatomic Distal Radius Plate (Standard, Narrow, Wide)
The anatomic distal radius plate is a pre-contoured periarticular locking plate for fractures of the distal radius. The line is built in three widths — standard, narrow and wide — so the plate can match differences in bone size and distal fragment geometry, with left and right versions across the range. BoneCraft supplies this plate as a genuine original implant from the Zimmer Biomet ZPLP periarticular locking system, distributed independently with full factory traceability.
Distal radius fractures are among the most common fractures treated with operative fixation, and the anatomy of the wrist varies widely between patients. A plate that sits proud on a slender radius creates tendon irritation, while an undersized head on a broad distal fragment leaves part of the articular block without screw support. Offering the same anatomic design in three widths addresses both problems at the level of implant selection rather than intraoperative compromise.
The standard version covers routine adult anatomy. The narrow version reduces mediolateral bulk for smaller patients, and the wide version spreads the distal screw row across a broader fragment. Width, length and screw configuration are chosen by the operating surgeon according to the fracture pattern and the measured anatomy of the patient.
Fixation combines compression screws through the shaft with locking screws in the head to support the articular surface. The anatomic contour seats the plate against the bone with minimal adjustment, and the width of the head determines how far the distal screw row extends across the fragment.
| Plate width | Available hole lengths | Catalog code families (left / right) |
|---|---|---|
| Standard | 3, 4, 7, 12 holes | 723123001 / 723123002 · MT31231 / MT31232 |
| Narrow | 3, 4 holes | 723123003 / 723123004 · MT31233 / MT31234 |
| Wide | 4 holes | 723123005 / 723123006 · MT31235 / MT31236 |
Each width is produced as a dedicated left and right plate rather than a reversible blank, and all twenty-seven catalog numbers across the three widths are held in BoneCraft warehouse stock with original factory labels and lot documentation intact.
