The LCP Distal Medial Tibia 3.5mm (Low Bend) is an anatomically contoured, side-specific implant designed for the internal fixation of fractures and osteotomies of the distal tibia, particularly those involving the medial malleolus or shaft. Its low-bend profile is optimized for placement on the medial aspect of the distal tibia. Utilizing LCP (Locking Compression Plate) technology, it provides fixed-angle stability to resist axial load and shear forces, crucial for maintaining reduction in the distal articulating segment. The plate is designed for use with 3.5mm screws.
