Radial Styloid Plate Technique

A linear skin incision is made along the mid axis of the forearm at the level of the wrist on the radial side. A trans styloid K-wires can be placed distally through the fragment to reduce the fracture, and provide a guide for plate placement. Once initial position and reduction is confirmed under fluoroscopy, a non-locking 2.4mm Vortex screw is placed in the oblong slot to contour the plate to bone. Use the threaded locking tower, variable angle drill guide or short drill sleeves to drill and place the 2.4mm variable angle locking screws into the remaining screw holes. The initial K-wires can be removed and remaining screw holes filled with 2.4mm locking screws. Additional fragment specific plating options can be added as needed depending on the fracture pattern encountered. Confirm final fragment reduction, plate placement, and screw trajectory on fluoroscopy to ensure satisfactory reduction.
