4.5MM Lateral Tibial Head Buttress Plate, Left and Right






+ Description
The Ø4.5mm Lateral Tibial Head Buttress Plate (Left) is a high-strength orthopedic implant designed for the stabilization of fractures in the lateral tibial plateau and proximal tibia, particularly in periarticular and metaphyseal regions.
Engineered to provide angular stability and prevent collapse, this plate is particularly effective in osteoporotic and comminuted fractures, ensuring rigid fixation and optimal healing.
Designed with a left-side anatomical contour, it conforms to the natural curvature of the lateral tibial head, reducing the need for excessive intraoperative bending.
The low-profile structure ensures minimal soft tissue irritation while maintaining high mechanical strength, making it ideal for load-bearing applications.

+ Indications
- Specifically designed for lateral tibial plateau fractures and proximal tibia fractures, including intra-articular and metaphyseal fractures.
- Ideal for osteoporotic and comminuted fractures, ensuring rigid stabilization in fragile bone structures.
- Commonly used in complex trauma cases, where angular and rotational stability is crucial.
- Supports peri-prosthetic fractures, reinforcing the bone in cases involving previous joint replacement surgeries.
- Essential for reconstructive and 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, durability, and corrosion resistance.
- Left-Sided Anatomical Contour: Pre-shaped to match the natural lateral tibial head anatomy, minimizing surgical modifications.
- Buttress Support Mechanism: Prevents axial displacement and varus/valgus collapse, ensuring superior fracture stability.
- Multiple Screw Holes: Accommodates Ø4.5mm cortical screws and Ø6.5mm cancellous screws, allowing secure and versatile fixation.
- Dynamic Compression Capability: Enhances fracture healing by applying controlled axial compression across the fracture site.
- Low-Profile Design: Minimizes soft tissue irritation, improving post-surgical comfort and mobility.
- Polished or Anodized Finish: Enhances biocompatibility, reducing the risk of infection and implant corrosion.
