The Distal Lateral Tibial Locking Plate System is an orthopedic fixation plate system designed for fixation applications involving the distal lateral tibia. The system includes two plate designs, providing different dimensional and fixation configurations for orthopedic surgical applications.
The system consists of Distal Lateral Tibial Locking Plate-I and Distal Lateral Tibial Locking Plate-II. Both designs are available in left and right configurations, allowing selection according to the required anatomical side.
Type I, REF series 5100-28, has a thickness of 3.6 mm and a width of 16.5 mm. It is available with 5, 7, 9, 11 or 13 holes, with lengths ranging from 122 mm to 250 mm. Type I is specified for use with 5.0mm locking screws and 4.5mm cortical screws.
Type II, REF series 5100-29, has a thickness of 4.2 mm and a width of 13 mm. It is available with 5, 7, 9 or 11 holes, with lengths ranging from 136 mm to 232 mm. Type II is specified for use with 3.5mm locking screws and 3.5mm cortical screws.
The two designs give hospitals, orthopedic distributors and medical device procurement teams more configuration choices when selecting a distal tibial fixation plate. Each REF number corresponds to a specific side, hole configuration and plate length, making product identification and ordering straightforward.
