2.Distal Posterior Lateral Tibial Locking Plate Features


      1.Anatomical Design:

    • Shape and Contour: Designed to fit the anatomy of the sacroiliac joint, ensuring proper alignment and stability.


    2.Material:

    • Biocompatible: Typically made from materials like titanium alloy or stainless steel, ensuring compatibility with the human body.


    3.Compression Mechanism:

    • Compression Slots/Holes: Includes slots or holes to allow for compression at the fracture site, aiding in bone healing and stability.


    4.Locking Mechanism:

    • Locking Screws: Utilizes locking screws that engage with the plate, providing angular stability and reducing the risk of screw loosening.


    5.Plate Thickness and Profile:

    • Low-profile Design: Minimizes soft tissue irritation and reduces the risk of postoperative complications.


    6.Versatility:

    • Various Sizes: Available in different sizes to accommodate varying patient anatomies and fracture types.

    • Multiple Holes: Provides flexibility in screw placement to adapt to different fracture patterns and surgical techniques.


    7.Surgical Technique:

    • Placement: Requires precise surgical placement to ensure proper alignment and effective compression of the joint.


    8.Clinical Application:

    • Fracture Fixation: Used primarily for stabilizing fractures of the sacrum or ilium involving the sacroiliac joint.

    • Joint Fusion: Can also be used in procedures aimed at achieving fusion of the sacroiliac joint.


    9.Postoperative Considerations:

    • Recovery: Patients may undergo physical therapy to regain strength and mobility after surgery.

    • Long-term Use: In some cases, the plate may remain in place permanently if it does not cause discomfort or complications.


Benefits of Sacroiliac Compression Plate


  • Stability: Provides stable fixation, crucial for fractures or injuries affecting the sacroiliac joint.

  • Biomechanical Support: Restores biomechanical alignment of the joint, aiding in functional recovery.

  • Reduced Complications: Minimizes soft tissue irritation and promotes faster healing due to its low-profile design.

  • Customization: Offers options in size and configuration to meet individual patient needs and surgical requirements.


Always consult with a healthcare professional or orthopedic surgeon for specific medical advice and treatment options related to sacroiliac fractures or injuries.


3.Distal Posterior Lateral Tibial Locking Plate Indications


  • Tibia fractures, including simple, comminuted, and osteoporotic fractures.

  • Ankle fractures with involvement of the tibia.

  • Syndesmotic injuries requiring stabilization.

  • Fractures that extend into the ankle joint (intra-articular fractures).

7.Distal Posterior Lateral Tibial Locking Plate FAQ


1.What is a distal lateral tibial locking plate?

A distal lateral tibial locking plate is an orthopedic implant used for the fixation of fractures and other conditions affecting the distal (lower) end of the tibia. It is designed to provide stable fixation using locking screw technology.


2.What are the main features of distal lateral tibial locking plates?

  • Anatomical Design: Contoured to fit the lateral surface of the distal tibia, ensuring proper alignment and stability.

  • Locking Mechanism: Utilizes locking screws that engage with the plate, providing angular stability and reducing the risk of screw loosening.

  • Biocompatible Material: Typically made from titanium alloy or stainless steel, ensuring compatibility with the human body.

  • Compression Slots/Holes: Includes slots or holes to allow for compression at the fracture site, aiding in bone healing.

  • Low-profile Design: Minimizes soft tissue irritation and reduces the risk of postoperative complications.


3.What types of fractures or conditions are distal lateral tibial locking plates used for?

Distal lateral tibial locking plates are used for:

  • Fracture Fixation: Stabilizing fractures of the distal tibia, including intra-articular and extra-articular fractures.

  • Osteotomies: Surgical cutting of bone to correct deformities or realign fractures.

  • Nonunions and Malunions: Corrective surgeries for fractures that have not healed properly or have healed in improper alignment.


4.How does the locking mechanism work?

The locking mechanism involves screws that thread into the plate, providing a fixed-angle construct. This enhances stability compared to traditional non-locking plates, which rely on friction between the plate and bone.


5.What are the advantages of using distal lateral tibial locking plates?

  • Enhanced Stability: Provides stable fixation, crucial for fractures or injuries affecting the distal tibia.

  • Biomechanical Support: Restores biomechanical alignment of the bone, aiding in functional recovery and joint restoration.

  • Reduced Complications: Minimizes soft tissue irritation and promotes faster healing due to its low-profile design.

  • Customization: Offers options in size and configuration to meet individual patient needs and surgical requirements.


6.Can distal lateral tibial locking plates be used in minimally invasive surgery (MIS)?

Yes, some designs of distal lateral tibial locking plates are compatible with minimally invasive surgical techniques, which can reduce soft tissue disruption and improve recovery times.


7.How long do distal lateral tibial locking plates stay in the body?

The duration of implantation depends on various factors, including the patient's healing progress and the specific condition being treated. In many cases, the plates may remain in place permanently if they do not cause discomfort or complications.


8.What should patients expect after surgery with a distal lateral tibial locking plate?

Patients can expect a period of recovery and rehabilitation to regain strength and mobility. The plate is designed to support the bone during healing and is typically well-tolerated by the body.


9.How can I find out if a distal lateral tibial locking plate is suitable for my condition?

Consult with an orthopedic surgeon who can evaluate your specific condition, imaging studies, and medical history to determine the most appropriate treatment and implant options.

These FAQs provide a general overview of distal lateral tibial locking plates. For specific medical advice and detailed information, always consult with a healthcare professional or orthopedic surgeon.
