A distal radial plate including a longitudinal segment having a proximal end and a distal end; a transverse segment having a lateral end and a medical end; the distal end of the longitudinal segment attached to the transverse segment intermediate the lateral and medial ends of the transverse segment to form a T-shape; the longitudinal segment having a plurality of spherically recessed holes and having a slot with a proximal end and a distal end; the distal end of the slot having a spherical recess; the proximal end of the slot having a beveled edge which converges distally with the spherical recess of the slot; the transverse segment having a plurality of spherically recessed holes. An extender seats in one of the holes in the transverse segment of the distal radial plate and provides an additional hole on the lateral side of the transverse segment of the plate. Buttress pins have specially formed collars to be secured to the distal radial plate via a &ldquo;snap-lock.&rdquo; A slotted-style distal radial plate bender has slots for receiving and bending both the transverse and longitudinal segments of the distal radial plate.

Bone plating system

An intramedullary nail for use in combination with a proximal bone screw. The nail includes an elongated body having a proximal end and a distal end with a central axis extending between the proximal end and the distal end. The proximal end of the body has a transverse slot therethrough, the transverse slot therethrough with contour for allowing the proximal bone screw to be inserted through the transverse slot and through the proximal end of the body with the longitudinal axis of the proximal bone screw located at an angle to the central axis of the body of the nail within a range between an acute angle on either side of a plane extending transverse to the central axis of the body of the nail.

Modular intramedullary fixation system and insertion instrumentation

A femoral neck anteversion guide for use with a femur having a prepared intramedullary canal. The guide includes a radiolucent stem having a distal end for inserting into the prepared intramedullary canal; and a radiopaque angle locator wire embedded within the stem at a known angle for allowing the femoral neck angle and femoral neck anteversion to be determined.
