The WOLF® plating system is indicated for treatment of fractures, osteotomies, and non-unions of the upper extremity diaphyses, with the primary (and most common) use being the open treatment of long bone, or diaphyseal, fractures.
Variations in patient anatomy are significant and variations from humerus long bone to a long bone in the forearm or the leg are vast. This guide is not intended to cover all such variations in regional anatomy or among different patients. Rather, this document is an outline of suggested steps that the surgeon may follow when using WOLF®.
Surgeons and other health care professionals must exercise their best judgment in deciding how a diaphyseal fracture or other condition is to be treated. This guide is
intended for cases where the surgeon has recommended open management of such fracture or condition, utilizing plate osteosynthesis with TOBY®’s WOLF® system. Download WOLF Surgical Technique Guide
