Product introductionThe L-shaped posterior distal tibia variable-angle locking plate model 4034014 is intended for internal fixation of posterior distal tibial fractures and related medial tibial injuries. The plate incorporates 30° conical polyaxial locking holes permitting screw angulation up to ±15° from the hole axis. Manufactured from TA3G pure titanium and TC4 titanium alloy, it provides mechanical strength, biocompatibility and corrosion resistance. Low-profile anatomical contour, rounded edges and polished/anodized finish minimise soft tissue irritation.
Features- Polyaxial locking holes: 30° conical geometry for multi-directional screw placement within the allowed angulation range.
- Self-tapping screw compatibility: designed for use with variable-angle locking and cortical screws.
- Ball-head locking interface: spherical screw heads engage the conical holes to provide angular stability.
- Material and finish: TA3G pure titanium and TC4 alloy with polished/anodized surface for corrosion resistance and biocompatibility.
- Low-profile anatomical design: contoured shape with rounded edges to reduce prominence and soft tissue irritation.
Advantages- Flexible screw trajectories: variable-angle design allows adaptation to fracture pattern and patient anatomy.
- Angular and rotational stability: locking interface and multiple fixation points resist displacement and rotational forces.
- Bone-quality adaptation: compatible with different screw diameters for cortical, cancellous or osteoporotic bone.
- Simplified technique: variable-angle locking without additional inserts or auxiliary components.
Indications- Posterior distal tibial fractures
- Distal tibial fractures including intra-articular and extra-articular patterns
- Tibial plateau fractures involving the medial tibial region
- Comminuted fractures and osteoporotic fractures
- Tibial shaft fractures requiring angular-stable fixation
