VRP Plate
Volar Radius Peek Plate
VRP Plate is a CFR-PEEK-made Volar Radius Plate that guarantees optimal fixation and stability for distal radius fractures.
The entirely polymeric nature of the implant makes it bio-compatible, but it also ensures good mechanical properties, making VRP Plate an optimal choice in its field.
CFR-PEEK represents the combination of Poly Ether Ether Ketone (PEEK) and Carbon Fiber Reinforced 30% (CFR 30%).
Anatomically contoured plate ensures optimal fit, stability, and surgical efficiency
Angular stability cancellous and cortical screws support epiphyseal and diaphyseal stabilization
Anti-cold welding polymeric build allows for easier implant removal
Slotted hole at the diaphyseal level ensures precise and comfortable adjustments during positioning
