The 3.5mm Proximal Humerus PHILOS Plate (3–10 Holes) with Locking Screws – 54 PCS Stainless Steel 316L Set is an advanced orthopedic fixation system developed for the treatment of proximal humerus fractures, surgical neck fractures, greater tuberosity fractures, displaced three-part and four-part fractures, nonunion repair, corrective osteotomies, and complex shoulder reconstruction.
The PHILOS (Proximal Humeral Internal Locking System) plate is specifically designed to provide stable fixation in the proximal humerus while preserving blood supply and supporting early mobilization. Its anatomically contoured profile closely matches the natural shape of the proximal humerus, minimizing the need for intraoperative plate bending and facilitating accurate implant placement.
This implant system includes 3-hole through 10-hole PHILOS plates with compatible 3.5mm locking screws, allowing surgeons to select the appropriate construct based on fracture pattern, bone quality, and patient anatomy. The multiple plate lengths offer versatility for both simple and complex proximal humeral fractures.
The included 3.5mm locking screws create a fixed-angle locking construct by securely engaging the threaded plate holes. This technology enhances angular stability, reduces the risk of screw loosening, and provides reliable fixation, especially in osteoporotic bone, comminuted fractures, and periarticular injuries.
Manufactured from medical-grade Stainless Steel 316L, the plates and screws provide excellent mechanical strength, corrosion resistance, and long-term durability. Stainless Steel 316L is widely recognized in orthopedic trauma surgery for its dependable performance and high load-bearing capacity.
Each implant component is precision-machined to ensure accurate screw-to-plate engagement, consistent fixation, and compatibility with standard orthopedic locking plate instrumentation. The system is designed to streamline surgical procedures while delivering dependable clinical outcomes.
The 54-piece orthopedic implant set is ideal for hospitals, orthopedic trauma centers, ambulatory surgery centers, and specialty orthopedic clinics. It provides surgeons with a complete range of PHILOS plates and locking screws for the management of proximal humerus fractures.
