Proximal Lateral Tibial Locking Plate-II

What is Proximal Lateral Tibial Locking Plate？

The OrthoLimited 3.5 mm LCP® Proximal Tibia Plate is part of the LCP Periarticular Plating System, which merges locking screw technology with conventional plating techniques. The LCP Periarticular Plating System is capable of addressing complex fractures of the distal femur with the 3.5 mm LCP Condylar Plates, complex fractures of the proximal femur with the 3.5 mm LCP Proximal Femur Plates and 3.5 mm LCP

Proximal Femur Hook Plates, and complex fractures of the proximal tibia when using the 3.5 mm LCP Proximal Tibia Plates and 3.5 mm LCP Medial Proximal Tibia Plates.

The locking compression plate (LCP) has Combi holes in the plate shaft that combine a dynamic compression unit (DCU) hole with a locking screw hole. The Combi hole provides the flexibility of axial compression and locking capability throughout the length of the plate shaft.

Plate Features:

• Anatomically contoured to approximate the lateral aspect of the proximal tibia

• Can be tensioned to create a load-sharing construct

• Available in left and right configurations, in 316L stainless steel or commercially pure (CP) titanium

• Available with 5、7、9 or 11 Combi holes in the plate shaft

• The two round holes distal to the head accept 3.5 mm cortex screws and 3.5 mm cancellous bone screws for interfragmentary compression or to secure plate position

• An angled, threaded hole, distal to the two round holes, accepts the 3.5 mm cannulated locking screw. The hole angle allows this locking screw to converge with the central locking screw in the plate head to support a medial fragment

• Combi holes, distal to the angled locking hole, combine a DCU hole with a threaded locking hole

• Limited-contact profile
