4.5MM L Buttress Plate | Left and Right
+ Description
The Ø4.5mm L Buttress Plate (Left) is a high-performance orthopedic implant designed for the stabilization of complex fractures in periarticular and metaphyseal regions, including the distal femur, proximal tibia, and other weight-bearing bones.
Engineered to provide angular stability and prevent collapse, this plate is particularly effective in osteoporotic and comminuted fractures, ensuring secure fixation and optimal healing.
Its left-side anatomical contouring minimizes the need for intraoperative modifications, allowing for precise implantation and superior alignment.
The low-profile design ensures minimal soft tissue irritation while maintaining high mechanical strength for long-term stability.
+ Indications
- Specifically designed for distal femur and proximal tibia fracture fixation, including intra-articular and metaphyseal fractures.
- Ideal for treating comminuted and osteoporotic fractures, ensuring rigid stabilization in weakened bone structures.
- Supports peri-prosthetic fractures, reinforcing bone stability after joint replacement surgeries.
- Commonly used in complex trauma cases, where angular and rotational stability is critical.
- Essential for corrective osteotomy procedures, assisting in bone realignment and functional recovery.
+ Key Features
- Material: Manufactured from Stainless Steel (316L) or Titanium Alloy (Ti-6Al-4V) for biocompatibility and corrosion resistance.
- Left-Sided Anatomical Contour: Pre-shaped to match the natural curvature of the bone, reducing intraoperative adjustments.
- Buttress Support Mechanism: Prevents axial displacement and angular collapse, ensuring rigid stabilization.
- Multiple Screw Holes: Accommodates Ø4.5mm cortical screws and Ø6.5mm cancellous screws, providing secure and versatile fixation.
- Dynamic Compression Capability: Enhances fracture healing by applying controlled axial compression.
- Low-Profile Structure: Reduces soft tissue irritation, improving post-surgical comfort.
- Polished or Anodized Finish: Enhances biocompatibility and bacterial resistance, reducing infection risks.
