The 2.0S Mini Locking Plate is a specialized, miniaturized orthopedic implant system designed for use in small bone fixation where enhanced strength is required. With its 2.0mm screw size, it provides a more robust and rigid fixation than 1.5mm systems, making it ideal for slightly larger or more load-bearing small bones. The plate's low-profile design and fixed-angle locking screw technology work together to provide superior stability that is independent of bone quality. This system is crucial for treating fractures, non-unions, and osteotomies in the hand, foot, and maxillofacial regions, promoting rapid bone healing and a swift return to function with minimal soft tissue irritation.

Product Description
The 2.0mm screw size provides greater pull-out strength and torque, making the system more rigid and suitable for more demanding applications within small bone surgery.
The plate is designed to be small and thin, which is ideal for anatomical locations with minimal soft tissue coverage, reducing the risk of irritation and discomfort.
The locking screw-to-plate interface creates a rigid, fixed-angle construct that provides superior stability, essential for resisting forces on small bone fragments and promoting healing.
The locking technology prevents screws from loosening or pulling out, which is a significant advantage in areas with thin bone, such as the metacarpals, metatarsals, or facial bones.
Crafted from medical-grade Titanium, the implant offers exceptional strength, biocompatibility, and fatigue resistance for reliable, long-term fixation in high-stress areas.
The 2.0S Mini Locking Plate is primarily indicated for the stable fixation of fractures of the larger metacarpals, metatarsals, and mid-foot bones, as well as for small joint arthrodesis.
It is an ideal solution for maxillofacial trauma, including fractures of the mandible, where the increased screw size provides greater fixation strength compared to a 1.5mm system.
The implant is also suitable for stabilizing bones after corrective osteotomies and for the treatment of non-unions in small bones where enhanced rigidity is required.

The 2.0S Mini Locking Plate is a specialized orthopedic implant that provides a more robust alternative to the 1.5mm system within the mini-fragment category. The "2.0S" refers to the 2.0mm screw diameter, which offers a higher level of strength and stability compared to the 1.5mm system. It is designed for use in small bones where a slightly larger implant can be tolerated and where greater forces are anticipated. The system's primary purpose is to provide stable fixation in areas like the larger bones of the hand and foot, and specific regions of the face. The fixed-angle locking technology provides a strong, rigid splint to protect the fracture site from micromotion, leading to predictable healing.
The primary applications of the 2.0S Mini Locking Plate are in the fixation of fractures of the larger bones of the hand and foot, such as the metacarpals and metatarsals, and in maxillofacial surgery. It is an indispensable tool for surgeons who need a precise, yet strong, solution for more robust small bones. For maxillofacial surgeons, it is often the preferred choice for fractures of the mandible, where biting forces can be high, and for other mid-face fractures that require greater rigidity. The system is also used for corrective osteotomies and for the treatment of non-unions in these bones where enhanced stability is required.
The 2.0S Mini Locking Plate offers several key advantages for small bone surgery. While still retaining a low-profile design to minimize soft tissue irritation, the 2.0mm system provides greater pull-out strength and torsional rigidity, which is essential for more active patients or for fractures in more load-bearing locations. The fixed-angle locking stability provides a very strong and secure fixation, even in small, comminuted, or osteoporotic bone. This robust stability allows for early, controlled mobilization of the hand or foot, which is essential for preserving joint function and a faster return to daily activities.
The biomechanics of the 2.0S Mini Locking Plate are centered on providing a rigid, load-bearing construct with enhanced strength. The 2.0mm locking screws create a fixed-angle unit with the plate, which is highly resistant to axial, bending, and torsional forces. This is a significant improvement over smaller systems for more demanding applications. This system acts as a strong internal fixator, protecting the fracture site and allowing the bone to heal in a low-stress environment. The superior biomechanical stability ensures that the small joints are protected and that the fracture heals in the correct alignment, which is crucial for a successful long-term outcome.
The implantation of the 2.0S Mini Locking Plate requires careful preoperative planning and the use of fine surgical instruments. After the fracture is reduced, the surgeon positions the miniature plate on the bone. The use of a dedicated drill guide is essential for precise screw placement. The screws are then inserted and locked into the plate, creating the rigid fixed-angle construct. The procedure is designed to be streamlined, allowing the surgeon to achieve a secure fixation with as little soft tissue disruption as possible.
Following a successful fixation with this system, a structured postoperative care plan is initiated. Due to the high stability and strength of the implant, patients are often able to begin early, controlled range of motion exercises as prescribed by the surgeon. Physical therapy is a crucial component of recovery, focusing on restoring joint function and muscle strength. Regular clinical and radiographic follow-up appointments are essential to monitor fracture healing and ensure the implant remains stable throughout the recovery process.
The 2.0S Mini Locking Plate is a highly effective and reliable solution for the treatment of small bone fractures. Its innovative design, which combines a miniature low-profile shape with advanced locking technology and a slightly larger screw size, provides surgeons with a powerful tool for achieving stable, customized fixation in more demanding applications. By promoting high stability, anatomical reconstruction, and facilitating early patient mobility, the 2.0S Mini Locking Plate leads to excellent clinical outcomes and a restored quality of life for the patient.
The primary difference is the screw diameter: 2.0mm versus 1.5mm. The 2.0mm system provides greater pull-out strength and rigidity, making it suitable for larger or more load-bearing small bones, while the 1.5mm system is preferred for smaller, more delicate bones.
This plate is used for fractures of larger small bones, such as the larger metacarpals and metatarsals, as well as specific fractures of the jaw and other facial bones where greater strength is required.
Small bones often have thin cortex, which can be easily damaged by a standard plate that relies on compression. A locking plate creates a fixed-angle construct that acts like an internal splint, providing stability without relying on bone quality and reducing the risk of screw loosening or pullout.
Yes. Although pre-shaped plates are available, the 2.0S Mini Locking Plate is designed to be malleable and can be carefully bent and contoured by the surgeon to perfectly match the patient's specific anatomy.
Recovery time varies depending on the fracture, but the stable fixation provided by the locking plate often allows for early, controlled motion of the affected area, which is essential for a good outcome and preventing joint stiffness.
