VRP plate
Anatomical design and optimal biomechanical features to ensure the success of the surgeryVolar Radius PEEK plate
Benefits
Facilitated rehabilitation
The modulus of elasticity of CFR PEEK close to the cortical bone allows an easier and faster rehabilitation compared to conventional osteosynthesis materials.
Optimal revision of the healing process
The radiolucency allows intraoperative control of the reduction of the fracture and better visualization in the post-operative period, avoiding the interference of artefacts in the MRI images.
Easy removal
The absence of galvanic corrosion between the plate and screws, together with no excess of the callus on the plate itself allows for easier removal.

Sizing
& Options
VRP plate The VRP plate is available in four sizes, from 2 to 5 holes.
The proximal portion has holes for the insertion of titanium alloy cortical screws with a diameter of 3.5 mm. The distal portion accommodates up to six angular stability screws with a diameter of 2.3 mm.
