Procedure: Distal Tibia Fracture

Medial Distal Tibia plates feature a distal tab with a machined relief on the underside of the plate to allow for bending and contouring to adapt to anatomical variations from patient-to-patient and hug the medial malleolus. The machined relief feature also allows for easier removal of the tab if desired. Plates feature a transitional profile with a robust shaft proximally, and a lower profile design distally to minimize hardware prominence in an area with minimal soft tissue coverage. The Distal Tibia Plating System is an ancillary tray that complements the core Ankle Fracture Plating System. The tray comes equipped with additional instrumentation including a ball spike pusher and locking wheel clamp to aid in reduction, as well as a plate inserter to facilitate proper plate positioning and orientation.
