Black Locking Plate Medial Proximal Tibia 3.5mm

The Locking  Medial Proximal Tibia Plates 3.5 and 4.5 are part of the locking  periarticular plating system. They are intended to buttress metaphyseal fractures of the medial tibia plate, split-type fractures of the medial tibia plateau, medial split fractures with associated depressions and split or depression fractures of the medial tibia plate. The plates may also be used for fixation of the proximal quarter (lateral and medial) of the tibia as well as segmental fractures of the proximal tibia. The 4.5 version may also be used for fixation of nonunions and malunions of the medial proximal tibia and tibia shaft, as well as opening and closing wedge tibial osteotomies.

The plates have a limited contact profile. The plate head is anatomically contoured to approximate the anteromedial proximal tibia. The plates feature 3 locking screw holes proximally, with trajectories parallel to the joint. These proximal locking head screws also converge in the lateral condyle. The 2 angled locking screw holes in the proximal part of the shaft converge with 2 of the proximal screws in the head of the plate.
