Your solution for ulna shortening osteotomies.

The implants of the Alians Forearm range are dedicated to the fixation of radius and ulna fractures and osteotomies in adults.

Positive ulnar variance may be constitutional or post-traumatic following a distal radius fracture. It results from a relative lengthening of the ulna compared to the radius. When symptomatic, this anomaly can lead to ulnocarpal impaction, characterized by overload of the ulnar-sided wrist structures. It is a frequent cause of pain and may result in decreased grip strength.

One of the surgical treatments consists of performing a diaphyseal ulnar shortening osteotomy and stabilizing the correction with a stable osteosynthesis system using a locked plate.

The Alians Ulna 3.3 range offers a complete system of plates and associated cutting guides designed to perform ulnar shortening osteotomies. All implants and instruments are gathered in a single kit.

A simple and effective solution
for ulna shortening osteotomies.

ALIANS ULNA 3.3

This symmetrical and anatomical plate model is designed for the stabilization of ulnar osteotomies. It incorporates three Ø3.5 mm screws on either side of the osteotomy site, in both the distal and proximal sections, as well as a Ø2.8 mm transfixing screw crossing the site to ensure compression maintenance.

ALIANS ULNA 3.3 – CUTTING GUIDE
The associated cutting guide is modular, to match the shortening value defined for the osteotomy (from 2 mm to 6 mm). It is designed to perform oblique cuts, allowing for a larger interosseous contact surface during the consolidation phase.
The implant is compatible with three different surgical approaches: volar, dorsal, and lateral.
ALIANS ULNA 3.3 – RACK SYSTEM
The system is equipped with a cannulated rack handle, allowing for effective and intuitive compression.
This mechanism facilitates the closing of the osteotomy site once the cuts have been made, while maintaining alignment of the bone fragments.
