Ankle fusion locking plate (L/R) - Placa de bloqueo para fusión de tobillo
For Ankle fusion - Para la fusión del tobillo
Ankle Fusion Locking Plate is a trauma implant used in ankle fusion surgery, also known as arthrodesis. Ankle fusion is a surgical procedure where the bones of the ankle joint are permanently joined together to eliminate joint motion. This procedure is typically recommended for patients with severe ankle arthritis, deformities, or failed previous ankle surgeries.
Features
- Material: Made of high-grade medical titanium for enhanced strength and biocompatibility.
- Surface Treatment: Polished and anodized to improve corrosion resistance and minimize tissue irritation.
- Locking Mechanism: Compatible with HA 3.5 mm locking screws for stable and rigid fixation.
- Anatomical Design: Designed to fit the natural curvature of the ankle joint for optimal fixation during fusion.
- Radiolucency: The plate is radiolucent, ensuring clear visibility during imaging such as X-ray and CT scans.
- Customization: Available in different configurations to suit patient-specific needs.
Intended Use
The Ankle Fusion Locking Plate (L/R) is designed for use in ankle fusion surgeries, offering stability and fixation to promote fusion of the ankle joint.
Indications
This plate is indicated for:
- Ankle joint fusion for severe osteoarthritis
- Post-traumatic arthritis of the ankle
- Ankle deformity correction
- End-stage ankle arthritis
Contraindications
The plate should not be used in:
- Active infection at or near the surgical site
- Poor bone quality that may not support the plate
- Patients with a known allergy to titanium or its alloys
