Anterolateral & Calcaneal Lateral Extension Plates
Intended purpose :
The implants of the Activ Fuse range are intended for bone reconstruction of the ankle joint in adults including fractures fixation and arthrodeses of the ankle, distal tibia, talus, and calcaneus.
Contraindications:
- Pregnancy.
- Acute or chronic, local or systemic infections.
- Allergy to one of the materials used or sensitivity to foreign bodies
A COMPREHENSIVE RANGE OF PLATES
ANTEROLATERAL APPROACH
ANTEROLATERAL PLATES
- The anterolateral plates are designed for a lateral approach.
- The five distal holes of the plates maximize fixation possibilities in the talus.
- The two transarticular screws going through the ankle, and subtalar joint if need be, allow compression of TT or TTC joints.
- Optional lateral support allowing additional stability for TTC fusion.
PRECONTOURED IMPLANTS
The design of these implants is the result of a proprietary state-ofthe-art mapping technology to establish the optimized congruence
between the plate and the bone.
LOCKING SYSTEM
Features:
– The screw head is stopped in the hole by its cap, ensuring the locking,
– The screw head is buried in the plate (a),
– Plates and screws are all made of titanium alloy.
Two types of Ø4.0 mm screws: locking (SOT4.0LxxD) and non-locking screws (CT4.0LxxD)
- Two types of transarticular screws for TT (tibiotalar) and TTC (tibio-talo-calcaneal) arthrodeses:
– Compression screws (QT6.5LxxD): partially threaded for lag effect
– Neutralization screws (CT6.5LxxD): fully threaded for stabilization
- Hexalobular stamp T20* for all the screws enabling torque transmission.
