Synthes 281.46 150° DHS Plate-Standard Barrel 6 Holes/110mm

Synthes 281.46 150° DHS Plate-Standard Barrel 6 Holes/110mm

The Synthes 281.46 is a high-specialty implant within the Dynamic Hip Screw (DHS) System, specifically engineered for the stabilization of intertrochanteric and subtrochanteric fractures. This 6-hole plate features a steep 150° neck-shaft angle and an extended 110mm shaft length, offering a specialized valgus configuration for specific anatomical requirements or corrective osteotomies.

Additional product details

• The DHS system remains the biomechanical "gold standard" for internal hip fixation. It allows the proximal femoral fragment to slide along a lag screw (sold separately) within the plate's barrel.
• Manufacturer: Synthes (DePuy Synthes)
• Neck-Shaft Angle: 150° (Extreme Valgus Alignment)
• Barrel Type: Standard Barrel (38mm length)
• Hole Count: 6 Holes (DCP/LC-DCP profile)
• Screw Compatibility: 4.5mm Cortex Screws (shaft) / DHS Lag Screw (barrel)
• Quantity: 1 Each
• 150° High-Angle Alignment: The 150° angle is utilized for patients with a highly valgus femoral neck or in cases requiring a valgus-producing osteotomy to treat femoral neck non-unions. Selecting the correct angle is critical to restoring proper biomechanical hip levers.
• Extended 6-Hole Shaft: The 110mm length provides a longer lever arm compared to standard 4-hole plates. This is essential for stabilizing fractures with subtrochanteric extension, providing additional screw purchase points in the femoral shaft to resist rotational and shear forces.
• 316L Stainless Steel Biocompatibility: Forged from vacuum-melted surgical steel, this plate provides the structural rigidity and fatigue resistance required to support weight-bearing loads during 2026 mobilization protocols.
• Intertrochanteric Fractures: Stabilization of fractures in patients with extreme valgus anatomy.
• Subtrochanteric Extensions: Providing extended shaft fixation where the fracture line extends distal to the lesser trochanter.
• Valgus Femoral Osteotomies: Correcting varus deformities or treating femoral neck pseudoarthrosis (non-union).
• Proximal Femoral Trauma: Cases requiring a robust lateral buttress with multiple points of distal shaft fixation.
• Status: NEW — Factory Sealed.
• Integrity: The implant is securely housed within its original manufacturer's packaging. Both inner and outer seals are intact, ensuring full material integrity and suitability for surgical use.
• Sterilization Note: This device is provided as a NON-STERILE implant. It MUST be properly cleaned and sterilized via validated steam autoclave protocols in accordance with facility guidelines and Synthes’ Instructions for Use (IFU) prior to clinical implantation.
