Abstract

A plate for stabilizing distal radius fractures, comprising a longitudinal shaft with an adjacent distal, anatomically preformed plate part, with the envelope of the plate part having an essentially triangular shape, and threaded bores with longitudinal axes arranged in both the shaft and the distal plate part and being cone-like at least at the distal plate end, which extend in a predominately non-parallel manner in the distal plate part, and wherein a bend is formed between the shaft and the plate part.
