The Clavicle Hook Plate treats lateral clavicle fractures and acromioclavicular (AC) joint injuries or dislocations. The plate’s shaft attaches to the clavicle, while a curved hook slides beneath the acromion and anchors the distal fragment — a region where straight plates often fail to gain solid purchase. Surgeons can choose between premium German stainless steel and titanium, depending on the case and their own preference.
Features
- Hooked distal design that seats below the acromion and supports the lateral clavicle segment
- Shaft section with multiple screw holes for secure attachment to the main clavicle fragment
- 4, 5, 6, and 7-hole configurations that suit different fracture patterns and clavicle lengths
- Premium German stainless steel and titanium options
- Fixation for lateral clavicle fractures
- Fixation for AC joint injuries and dislocations
Applications
Surgeons use this clavicle hook plate — also known in orthopedic circles as an ACRO plate — for lateral clavicle fractures, where the fracture line sits close to the shoulder and standard plating options can’t always secure the distal fragment. They also apply it in AC joint injuries and dislocations, since the hook component gives the joint construct extra support while it heals. That said, the right choice always depends on the fracture pattern, the patient’s anatomy, and the treating surgeon’s clinical judgment, so this description doesn’t replace a professional surgical assessment.
Material and Configuration
The implant comes in premium German stainless steel and titanium, and it’s available in these configurations:
| Holes | Approx. Length |
|---|---|
| 4 | 78–88 mm |
| 5 | 90–100 mm |
| 6 | 100–112 mm |
| 7 | 112–124 mm |
Because clavicle length and fracture patterns vary from patient to patient, surgeons and procurement teams can match the hole count and length to the specific case at hand.
