Intrauma

Plating is an effective method of treating fractures and pseudoarthroseis of the diaphyseal and proximal humerus. The success of this treatment depends on a number of factors, one of which is the technical and morphological characteristics of the plate used. Intrauma humeral plates are anatomically pre-shaped and allow biplanar locking, which ensures excellent primary stability. The patented conical locking system avoids the loss of primary and secondary reduction, ensuring stable fixation even in osteoporotic bone. O’nil plates are also indicated for the treatment of elderly patients with poor bone quality: the unique locking mechanism avoids pressure on the bone, preserving vascularity and accelerating the return of the patient’s previous mobility and function.

The O’Nil plate for proximal humerus is an optimal solution for the treatment of fractures of humeral head. In the proximal part of the plate seven screws can be locked at different angles, providing maximum stability to the humeral head, granting excellent grip in the osteoporotic bone and in multi fragmentary fractures. Made of AISI 316 LVM – ISO 5832-1 steel to allow MR imaging, the low profile and the particular design reduce the risk of impingement. The absence of pressure on the bone and the limited invasiveness help to preserve the proper vascularization of the periosteum; the biomechanical qualities of the implant permit early rehabilitation, by decreasing healing times.
