Product Introduction

The Variable-Angle Lateral Proximal Tibia Locking Plate is designed for internal fixation of fractures involving the lateral proximal tibia, particularly the tibial plateau and metaphysis.

The plate incorporates variable-angle locking holes with up to ±15° screw angulation, allowing screw trajectories to be adjusted according to fracture morphology and bone anatomy. This provides flexibility for fragment-specific fixation while helping avoid unwanted intra-articular screw penetration.

The low-profile plate is anatomically contoured to the lateral proximal tibia, with smooth rounded edges to help reduce soft tissue irritation. It supports both minimally invasive and open fixation techniques and can be used with locking and cortical screws for different fixation requirements.

Features

• Variable-Angle Locking Holes (±15°): Allow screw trajectories to be adjusted according to fracture configuration and bone quality.

• Combi Compression and Locking Holes: Support either axial compression or locking fixation along the plate shaft.

• Low-Profile Anatomical Design: Contoured to the lateral tibial plateau with rounded edges to help reduce soft tissue interference.

• Multiple Screw Options: Compatible with variable-angle locking, cortical, and cancellous screws for different fixation requirements.

• Suture/K-Wire Holes: Allow temporary fixation, fracture reduction, or soft tissue fixation during the procedure.

• Material Options: Available in stainless steel or titanium alloy according to the specified configuration, providing mechanical strength and biocompatibility.

Advantage

• Flexible Screw Angulation: The ±15° variable-angle range allows screw trajectories to be adapted to individual fracture fragments.

• Anatomical Plate Fit: The contoured design follows the lateral proximal tibia and helps maintain appropriate plate positioning.

• Multiple Fixation Options: Combination holes allow compression or locking techniques to be selected according to the fracture pattern.

• Limited Bone Contact: The low-profile design helps reduce plate-to-bone contact and soft tissue interference.

• Broad Fixation Application: Suitable for comminuted, osteoporotic, and peri-articular proximal tibial fractures, including cases treated with minimally invasive techniques.

Indications

The Variable-Angle Lateral Proximal Tibia Locking Plate is indicated for internal fixation of:

• Lateral tibial plateau fractures, including partial and complete articular fractures

• Proximal tibial metaphyseal fractures

• Metaphyseal-diaphyseal junction fractures

• Articular and peri-articular fractures requiring subchondral support

• Osteoporotic, comminuted, or small-fragment proximal tibial fractures

• Fractures suitable for open or minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis (MIPO)
