INDICATIONS
The implants of the Alians Elbow range are dedicated to the fixation of fractures and osteotomies of the distal humerus and proximal ulna in adults.
TECHNICAL FEATURES
- Precontoured implant including bendable sections
- Dualtec System® 2 technology: polyaxial holes allowing +/- 10° screw angulation (20° cone) ensuring optimum flexibility to capture bone fragments and prevent screws impinging on each other
Distal Humerus
- Fixation with two plates:
- parallel fixation: medial plate and lateral plate
- perpendicular fixation: medial plate and posterol-lateral plate with or without a backing device
- Pre-mounted lateral support that can be removed in case of small size humerus or fractures of the capitellum
- Fixation with one plate:
Olecranon
- Narrow, low-profile implant minimizing risks of skin necrosis and irritation of soft tissues
- Single screw diameter: 2.8 mm
- 2 epiphyseal hooks making fracture reduction easier and improving implant stability
IMPLANTS
Distal Humerus
- 4 types of plates: medial in 4 sizes (length 74 to 186 mm), lateral in 5 sizes (length 67 to 207 mm), postero-lateral in 5 sizes (length 71 to 213 mm) and Y plates in 3 sizes (length 134 to 226 mm). The lateral, postero-lateral and Y plates are available in right and left versions
- Diaphyseal fixation: Ø3.5 mm locking and non-locking screws, length from 10 to 40 mm (2mm increment) and 40 to 60 mm (5mm increment)
- Epiphyseal fixation: Ø2.8 mm locking and non-locking screws, length 10 to 40 mm (2mm increment) and 40 to 60 mm (5mm increment)
Olecranon
- 2 types of plates : Narrow plate (single size: 64 mm) and standard plates (length 102 to 182 mm)
- Single fixation: Ø2.8 mm locking and non-locking screws, length 10 to 40 mm (2mm increment) and 40 to 60 mm (5mm increment)
