The Synthes 281.170 DHS Plate is a specialized orthopedic implant engineered for treating intertrochanteric fractures of the proximal femur. Its 135° angled standard barrel is designed to follow the natural anatomical alignment of the femoral head and shaft, offering optimal biomechanical support for placement of a lag screw. The 270 mm shaft length with 16 fixation holes allows for extensive cortical anchoring, enhancing stability in both diaphyseal and metaphyseal regions.

Constructed from durable stainless steel, the plate is built to withstand significant physiological loading during weight-bearing phases of postoperative recovery. The 38 mm standard barrel and 12.6 mm diameter are precisely engineered to accommodate a 12.7 mm lag screw, facilitating secure engagement with the femoral head. Meanwhile, the multiple shaft holes compatible with 4.5 mm cortex screws allow for versatile fracture stabilization and customization of screw placement to suit diverse fracture patterns and bone quality.

In clinical practice, the Synthes 281.170 offers orthopedic surgeons a reliable solution for internal fixation in proximal femur fractures—balancing anatomical design, mechanical resilience, and surgical flexibility. Its extended hole configuration supports long-chain shaft fixation, reducing stress concentration and potential failure. Compatible with Synthes DHS instrumentation systems, it provides seamless integration into operative workflows, promoting secure, enduring fracture repair and patient recovery.
