OverviewSystem FeaturesSpecificationsBenefitsEducationAdditional Information

Advanced locking technology in a periarticular plate.

The 911³Ô¹Ï Periarticular Proximal Tibial Locking Plate System combines locking screw technology with a conventional periarticular plate designed to create fixed-angle constructs for use in stabilization of osteotomies and fractures, including: comminuted fractures, supracondylar fractures, intra/extraarticular condylar fractures, fractures in osteopenic bone, nonunions and malunions. The plates accommodate both standard screws and locking screws with threaded heads. When necessary, interfragmentary compression can be achieved using standard screws in the dual compression slots.

System Features

The Periarticular Locking Plates accommodate standard screws, as well as locking screws with threaded heads. When necessary, interfragmentary compression can be achieved using standard screws in the dual compression slots.Ìý

Cannulated screws and instruments allow provisional fixation with guide pins in the metaphysis. ThisÌýis intended to helpÌýensure that the threaded locking screw heads align properly with the threaded plate holes.Ìý

All plate configurations contain locking screw holes in the plate head, and alternating locking and compression screw slots in the shaft.Ìý

ÌýMinimally InvasiveÌý

TheÌýplate shaft design offers a minimally invasive technique allowing submuscular passage of the plate.ÌýThick-to-thin plate profiles make the platesÌýpre-contouredÌýwith multiple locking holes in the plate headÌýwhich is designed to allowÌýthe placement of the screws to capture fragments.

Locking Technology

TheÌýheadsÌýof the locking screws contain male threadsÌýwhile theÌýholes in theÌýplates contain female threads. This allows the screw head to be threaded into the plate hole, locking the screw into the plate. This technicalÌýfeatureÌýprovides the ability to create a fixed angle construct while using familiar plating techniques.

Benefits

Anatomic

  • The anatomically designed plates are pre-contoured to create a fit that requires little or no additional bending and helps with metaphyseal/diaphyseal reduction.

Low-Profile

  • ThisÌýis designed to facilitateÌýfixation without impingingÌýonÌýsoft tissue.ÌýThe plate can be used to control a medial fracture fragment with dual compression slows that accommodate periarticular screws or conventional stainless steel screws and allow bi-directional compression.Ìý

Locking

  • ÌýLockingÌýscrews in a bone plate create a fixed-angle construct.ÌýIn osteopenic bone or fractures with multiple fragments, secure bone purchase with conventional screws may be compromised. The locking screws do not rely on bone/plate compression to resist patient load but function similar to multiple small angled blade plates.
