The ALPS^® Distal Humerus Plate is a specialty fracture plate for fractures involving the distal humerus offering the following benefits:

• Anatomically Preshaped – The plates closely match the shape of the left and right medial distal humerus. The need for contouring is reduced.
• Screw Versatility – The plate holes accept KLS™ Locking Screws, which can be angulated with a KLS™ bead if needed.
• Lag Screw – The most distal plate hole can be used with a cortical lag screw for additional compression of fracture fragments.

The ALPS Distal Humerus plate is part of the ALPS Product Range and are anchored by KYON Locking Screws KLS™.  All plates use ALPS^® Technology, which includes a unique design which minimizes the contact-area of the plate with the periosteum to preserve the vascular supply, reduce the risk of infection and accelerate healing.

Principles

Biological principles of ALPS® Technology:

• Accelerated healing through minimal contact between plate and bone
  
• Use of monocortical locking screws prevent unnecessary damage of healthy bone and preserve vascular supply
• Superior biocompatibility and strength through Titanium
