## Intended Use

The Synthes LCP Radial Head Plating System is indicated for extra-articular and intra-articular fractures of the proximal radius and for multi-fragmented radial neck fractures.

## Device Story

Synthes LCP Radial Head Plating System consists of pre-contoured radial head rim and neck plates designed for proximal radius anatomy. Plates feature limited contact, low-profile design with locking combination and round locking holes. System accepts 2.0, 2.4, and 2.7 mm cortex screws and 2.4 mm locking screws. Used by orthopedic surgeons in clinical settings for internal bone fixation. Provides stable fixation for proximal radius fractures, facilitating bone healing and anatomical alignment.

## Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided; substantial equivalence is based on design and technological characteristics.

## Technological Characteristics

Materials: Stainless steel, CP titanium, and titanium alloy. Design: Pre-contoured, limited contact, low-profile plates. Fixation: Locking combination and round locking holes for 2.0, 2.4, and 2.7 mm cortex screws and 2.4 mm locking screws. Mechanical bone fixation appliance.

## Regulatory Identification

Single/multiple component metallic bone fixation appliances and accessories are devices intended to be implanted consisting of one or more metallic components and their metallic fasteners. The devices contain a plate, a nail/plate combination, or a blade/plate combination that are made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum, stainless steel, and titanium, that are intended to be held in position with fasteners, such as screws and nails, or bolts, nuts, and washers. These devices are used for fixation of fractures of the proximal or distal end of long bones, such as intracapsular, intertrochanteric, intercervical, supracondylar, or condylar fractures of the femur; for fusion of a joint; or for surgical procedures that involve cutting a bone. The devices may be implanted or attached through the skin so that a pulling force (traction) may be applied to the skeletal system.
