Product Explanation
The Locking Periarticular Distal Lateral Fibular Plate, 3.5 mm is an orthopedic fixation plate intended to form part of a compatible internal fixation construct involving the distal fibula.
A simplified fixation concept can be represented as:
Distal Fibula → Periarticular Lateral Locking Plate → Compatible Fixation Screws → Internal Fixation Construct
The product is specifically identified as a:
Periarticular Distal Lateral Fibular Plate
indicating a specialized plate geometry associated with the distal lateral fibular region.
According to the supplied product data, the plate family includes:
4 / 6 / 8 / 10 Shaft Holes
providing multiple plate configurations.
No Left / Right alignment is specified in the supplied image.
Product Components and Design
- Periarticular Distal Fibular Plate Body
The implant consists of an elongated metallic fixation plate with a broadened distal fixation region connected to a narrower longitudinal shaft.
The product is specifically identified as:
Periarticular
within the supplied product name.
The exact anatomical contour, distal width, shaft width, plate length, thickness, and plate-to-bone relationship should be confirmed from the manufacturer’s technical drawings.
- Distal Periarticular Fixation Section
The distal region is visibly broadened and incorporates several fixation openings.
However, the supplied product data states:
Head Holes: –
Therefore:
Head Holes: Not specified
should be used in the technical sheet.
The exact number, classification, locking characteristics, compatible screw type, screw diameter, and trajectories of these distal openings should be confirmed from the manufacturer’s technical documentation rather than determined by visual counting.
- Shaft Section
According to the supplied product information, the plate is available with:
4 Shaft Holes
6 Shaft Holes
8 Shaft Holes
10 Shaft Holes
This provides four listed shaft-hole configurations within the product family.
The exact physical plate length corresponding to each shaft-hole option is not supplied.
- Multiple Fixation Opening Geometries
The supplied product image visually shows several fixation-opening geometries, including:
- Multiple circular openings within the widened distal section.
- Circular shaft openings.
- Elongated / contoured shaft openings.
- Multiple longitudinal fixation positions.
The exact technical function of each opening—such as locking fixation, conventional fixation, compression, positioning, or another fixation role—is not defined in the supplied image and should be confirmed from the approved surgical technique.
- Periarticular Configuration
The product is specifically designated:
Periarticular
within the product title.
This identifies it as a distinct configuration from a simpler straight or standard distal fibular plate.
The exact periarticular fixation strategy, anatomical coverage, and biomechanical characteristics should be confirmed from the manufacturer’s official surgical technique.
- Lateral Distal Fibular Configuration
The product title specifically identifies the plate as:
Distal Lateral Fibular
which supports classification within the lateral distal fibula fixation family.
The exact plate positioning, surface orientation, and contour should be confirmed from official technical documentation.
- Alignment
According to the supplied product data:
Alignment: –
Therefore, no specific:
Left / Right
version is stated.
The product should not be described as side-specific unless this is confirmed elsewhere in the manufacturer’s master catalog.
- Material Options
According to the supplied product information, 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 Periarticular Distal Lateral Fibular Plate, 3.5 mm is designed for use as part of a compatible orthopedic fixation system involving the distal fibula, according to the approved indications, surgical technique, and Instructions for Use.
Potential applications may involve internal fixation of the distal fibula where this periarticular lateral plate configuration is included within the manufacturer’s approved indications.
The exact fracture patterns, fracture classifications, anatomical indications, fixation strategy, surgical approach, contraindications, and patient-selection criteria should be confirmed from the official product documentation.
Plate selection may depend on factors including:
- Distal fibular anatomy.
- Fracture location and configuration.
- Periarticular involvement.
- Required lateral plate geometry.
- Required distal fixation pattern.
- Required fixation construct.
- Required shaft-hole configuration.
- Required plate length.
- Bone dimensions.
- Bone quality.
- Compatible screw selection.
- Distal 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
Periarticular Distal Fibula Configuration
The product is specifically identified as a:
Locking Periarticular Distal Lateral Fibular Plate
providing a specialized plate configuration within a compatible distal fibula fixation system.
The exact anatomical and biomechanical role of the periarticular design should be confirmed from the manufacturer’s approved documentation.
Four Shaft-Hole Configurations
The product family includes:
4 / 6 / 8 / 10 Shaft Holes
providing four different plate configurations.
This supports selection among plate variants according to the required fixation construct and surgical planning.
3.5 mm Fixation System
The product is identified as:
Locking Periarticular Distal Lateral Fibular Plate, 3.5 mm
indicating its association with a compatible 3.5 mm orthopedic fixation system.
The exact compatible screw types and whether every visible plate opening accepts a 3.5 mm screw should be confirmed from the manufacturer’s system documentation.
Lateral Distal Fibular Geometry
The product designation specifically identifies a:
Lateral Distal Fibular
configuration.
This differentiates it from medial, posterior, or other fixation plate geometries.
Two Material Options
According to the supplied product data, the plate is available in:
SS316L
and
Titanium
Multiple Plate-Length Configurations
The shaft-hole options:
4 → 6 → 8 → 10
indicate multiple potential plate-length variants.
The corresponding physical lengths are not provided and should be confirmed from the manufacturer’s dimensional specifications.
Multiple Product Variants
Based strictly on the supplied product information, the family includes:
- Alignment: Not specified
- Head holes: Not specified
- 4 shaft-hole options: 4 / 6 / 8 / 10
- 2 material options: SS316L / Titanium
If every shaft-hole configuration is available in both materials, this could represent up to 8 basic shaft × material combinations.
The exact commercial configuration matrix should be confirmed from the official Cat. No. table.
