A VLP that individually supports the scaphoid and lunate fossa with fixed angle subchondral support may provide comparable fixation strength with resistance to displacement between articular and non-articular fracture patterns. The current results suggest that fossa-specific VLP fixation in articular fractures can maintain construct stability during postoperative loading.
