AxSOS 3 Ti Proximal Humerus
Plating System

Plating that fits.

Every minute counts in the OR. From a population-based implant design, a patented screw-to-plate interface, and streamlined instrumentation, our focus was on creating a well-designed plating system, giving you more time to focus on other things.

• 8 metaphyseal K-wire and suture holes
• Available in lengths up to 306mm
  
• Patented locking screw head design helps ease extraction¹
  
• May allow for a less rigid construct, potentially resulting in increased callus formation and secondary healing²
  
• Provides increased CT imaging clarity³
  
• Offers excellent biocompatibility^4,5
