The LCP Anterolateral Distal Tibia 3.5mm is an anatomically contoured, side-specific implant designed for the internal fixation of fractures and osteotomies of the distal tibia, specifically optimized for placement on the anterolateral aspect. Utilizing LCP (Locking Compression Plate) technology, it provides fixed-angle stability crucial for maintaining reduction and resisting axial load, especially in the distal articulating segment. The plate’s design ensures a low-profile fit over the bone, minimizing soft tissue irritation. It is designed for use with 3.5mm screws.
