3.5mm Posteromedial Proximal Tibia Plate

EgiFix Medical Locking and Compression Plates System

EgiFix Medical offers a comprehensive system of locking and compression plates for various bone fractures, available in stainless steel 316 LVM and Titanium Grade 5 Eli.

Plate Design Features

• Uniform Hole Spacing: Ensures consistent placement.
• AO Plating Technique: Adheres to orthopedic standards.
• Low Contact: Preserves blood supply.
• Tapered Ends: Facilitates easy insertion.

EGI-LOC™ Features

The EGI-LOC™ Periarticular Locked Plating System combines locked and non-locked screws, providing:

• Screw Angulation: 80° longitudinal and 14° transverse.
• Compression and Neutral Screw Positions: Supports minimal invasive techniques.
• Stability: Resists angular collapse and aids fracture reduction.

Locking Screw Design Features

• Conical Head: Enhances alignment in threaded holes.
• Large Core Diameter: Improves strength and load distribution.
• Shallow Thread Profile: Allows stability without relying solely on threads.
• Hexagonal Head: Ensures strong alignment with screwdrivers.
• Self-Tapping: Easy insertion.

Compression Screw Design Features

• ISO Standard 5835: Ensures quality and compatibility.
• Hemispherical Countersink: Improves angulation and contact.
• Hexagonal Head: Provides strong alignment.
• Self-Tapping: Facilitates ease of use.

AO Principles

• Anatomic Reduction: Ensures precise screw placement.
• Stable Fixation: Locking screws provide angular stability.
• Preservation of Blood Supply: Tapered ends and limited contact reduce vascular trauma.

Proximal Tibia Locked Plate Design Features

1. Anatomical Contouring: Designed to fit the lateral aspect of the proximal tibia.
2. Load-Sharing Capability: Can be tensioned to create a load-sharing construct.
3. Durable Materials: Made from 316LVM stainless steel and titanium; available for right and left tibia.

Plate Head

• Three Convergent Screw Holes: Accept three 6.5mm locking screws.
• Two 5mm Locking Screw Holes: Enhance fixation stability.
• Two 2.0mm Holes: For preliminary fixation with K-wires or meniscal repair with sutures.

Plate Shaft

• Compression and Locking Functionality:
  • Compression holes accept 4.5mm cortical screws.
  • Locking holes formed in Combi design for flexibility:
    • Compression holes accept 4.5mm cortex screws.
    • Locking holes accommodate conical screw heads.
• Combi Holes: Combine a DCU hole with a threaded locking hole for versatile fixation.
• Limited-Contact Profile: Reduces soft tissue interference.
