DiPHOS H

Thanks to its unique design and CFR PEEK, the DiPHOS H plate offers a stable and reliable fixation solution for proximal humeral fractures.

Modulus of elasticity close to the cortical bone

Angular stability screws

Radiolucency

About

The DiPHOS H humeral plate is indicated for fractures, fracture dislocations and non-unions of the proximal humerus.

The innovative material CFR PEEK 30% allows the intraoperative control of the fracture reduction and a better visualization of the post-operation healing process. Moreover, this material ensures no galvanic corrosion phenomena can occur between screws and plate, allowing for an easy removal. The proximal holes allow the insertion of the angular stability screws with a free orientation of +/-15°.
