The Foot And Ankle Locking Plate is a special-shaped plate specially developed for calcaneal and ankle fractures, which is in line with the anatomical structure of the calcaneal and ankle joints.
During the postoperative treatment process, it can reduce the stimulation of surrounding tissues and promote bone healing.
The calcaneus is the largest of the seven tarsal bones and is located on the lower back of the foot, forming the heel. Calcaneal fractures are relatively rare, accounting for 1% to 2% of all fractures, but are important because they can lead to long-term disability. The most common mechanism of severe calcaneal fractures is axial loading of the foot after a fall from height. Calcaneal fractures can be classified into extra-articular and intra-articular fractures. Extra-articular fractures are generally easier to assess and treat. Patients with calcaneal fractures often have multiple comorbid injuries, and it is important to consider this possibility when evaluating patients.
The ankle joint is composed of the articular surface of the tibia, the lower end of the fibula, and the talar trochlea, so it is also called the talar calf joint. Ankle fractures, including fractures of the medial malleolus, lateral malleolus, posterior malleolus, or fractures of varying degrees occurring simultaneously, are due to greater violence to the medial and lateral malleolus. At the same time of both ankle fractures, the talus directly impinges posteriorly or impinges on the tibia when displaced by external rotation. Fracture of the posterior malleolus due to the posterior margin.
Foot Mini Locking Plate is composed of 2.7mm series of mini Locking Plate, covering a variety of plate types, widely used in trauma fixation and orthopedic surgery of the forefoot. Anatomical design of bone plate to reduce the need for shaping.
