Product Explanation
The Locking Calcaneal Plate, 3.5 mm is an orthopedic fixation plate intended to form part of a compatible internal fixation construct involving the calcaneus.
A simplified fixation concept can be represented as:
Calcaneus → Locking Calcaneal Plate → Compatible Fixation Screws → Internal Fixation Construct
The product is specifically identified as a:
Calcaneal Plate
and is categorized under:
Trauma – Foot
The plate has a broad, anatomically contoured configuration with multiple interconnected fixation regions rather than a conventional straight plate with a simple shaft-and-head structure.
According to the supplied product information, it is available in:
Left / Right
configurations.
Product Components and Design
- Calcaneal Plate Body
The implant consists of a broad metallic plate with an open-frame / lattice-like geometry.
Unlike a conventional longitudinal plate, the product has multiple interconnected arms and fixation zones distributed across the plate body.
This geometry is visually consistent with a plate designed to cover a wider anatomical surface.
The exact:
- Overall plate length.
- Overall plate height.
- Plate width.
- Thickness.
- Contour.
- Curvature.
- Anatomical fit.
should be confirmed from the manufacturer’s dimensional drawings.
- Multi-Arm Plate Geometry
The supplied product image shows several projecting arms connected through a central plate structure.
These arms incorporate multiple visible fixation openings.
The exact purpose of the different arms, their anatomical positioning, and their role within the fixation construct should be confirmed from the manufacturer’s approved surgical technique.
- Multiple Fixation Openings
The plate visibly incorporates numerous fixation openings distributed around its perimeter and central region.
These include:
- Multiple circular openings.
- Openings at the ends of projecting arms.
- Central fixation openings.
- Peripheral fixation openings.
- Openings distributed across several levels of the plate.
The exact:
- Number of locking holes.
- Number of conventional holes.
- Screw diameter.
- Screw orientation.
- Screw angulation.
- Hole-specific function.
is not defined in the supplied table.
Therefore, these values should not be inferred solely by visually counting the openings.
- Head-Hole Configuration
The supplied product data states:
Head Holes: –
Therefore, the final technical sheet should use:
Head Holes: Not specified
This is especially appropriate because a calcaneal plate does not visually follow a simple “head + shaft” architecture.
- Listed 64 / 69 / 76 / 81 Values
The supplied table states:
Shaft Holes: 64, 69, 76, 81
This is almost certainly a mislabeled field.
A plate cannot reasonably contain 64, 69, 76, or 81 shaft holes, and the supplied image clearly does not show that number of openings.
A more plausible interpretation is:
Plate Length: 64 / 69 / 76 / 81 mm
or another dimensional specification.
However, the source image does not explicitly provide the unit or correct field name.
Therefore, the safest interim specification is:
Listed Configuration Values: 64, 69, 76, 81 — exact parameter and unit to be confirmed
until the official technical catalog is available.
- Left and Right Configurations
According to the supplied product information, the plate is available in:
Left / Right
versions.
This indicates side-specific plate geometry.
The exact geometric differences between the Left and Right versions should be confirmed from the manufacturer’s technical drawings.
- Material Options
According to the supplied product data, the plate is available in:
SS316L
and
Titanium
The exact Titanium grade or alloy is not specified and should be confirmed from the manufacturer’s official material specification.
Intended Use
The Locking Calcaneal Plate, 3.5 mm is designed for use as part of a compatible orthopedic fixation system involving the calcaneus, according to the approved indications, surgical technique, and Instructions for Use.
Potential applications may involve calcaneal fixation where this plate configuration is included within the manufacturer’s approved indications.
The exact fracture patterns, fracture classifications, surgical approach, anatomical indications, fixation strategy, contraindications, and patient-selection criteria should be confirmed from the official product documentation.
Plate selection may depend on factors including:
- Anatomical side.
- Calcaneal anatomy.
- Fracture location and configuration.
- Required fixation construct.
- Required plate dimensions.
- Plate configuration / size.
- Bone dimensions.
- Bone quality.
- Compatible screw selection.
- Screw trajectory requirements.
- Compatible instrumentation.
- Surgical approach.
- Preoperative planning.
- Intraoperative assessment.
The implant should be selected and implanted by a qualified orthopedic surgeon according to the approved surgical technique and Instructions for Use.
Key Benefits
Calcaneus-Specific Plate Configuration
The product is specifically identified as a:
Locking Calcaneal Plate
providing a dedicated fixation geometry within a compatible foot / calcaneal fixation system.
The exact anatomical and biomechanical role of the design should be confirmed from the manufacturer’s approved documentation.
Broad Multi-Point Fixation Geometry
The supplied image shows a broad plate configuration containing numerous fixation positions distributed across multiple arms and regions.
This provides a distinct design architecture compared with conventional straight fixation plates.
The precise mechanical benefit should be confirmed from official technical documentation.
Left and Right Anatomical Options
The product is available in:
Left / Right
configurations, supporting side-specific implant selection.
3.5 mm Fixation System
The product is identified as:
Locking Calcaneal Plate, 3.5 mm
indicating its association with a compatible 3.5 mm orthopedic fixation system.
The exact compatible screw types and whether all visible openings accept the same screw size should be confirmed from the manufacturer’s system documentation.
Two Material Options
According to the supplied data, the plate is available in:
SS316L
and
Titanium
Multiple Size / Configuration Values
The supplied table lists:
64 / 69 / 76 / 81
These likely represent multiple dimensional plate configurations.
However, the exact parameter and unit should be confirmed before these values are published as plate lengths.
