3.5 mm LCP Medial Distal Tibia Plate TECHNIQUE GUIDE®
3.5 mm LCP Medial Distal Tibia Plate TECHNIQUE GUIDE Original Instruments and Implants of the Association for the Study of Internal Fixation — AO ASIF ® 3.5 mm LCP® Medial Distal Tibia Plate Foreword The 3.5 mm LCP® Medial Distal Tibia Plate is part of the Synthes Small Fragment LCP System that merges locking screw technology with conventional plating techniques. The plate is stainless steel and features a limited-contact shaft profile, locking compression plate (LCP) holes in the shaft, and locking screw holes in the head. The LCP holes in the plate shaft combine a dynamic compression unit (DCU) hole with a locking screw hole. The LCP hole provides the flexibility of axial compression and locking capability throughout the length of the plate shaft. Fixation with the 3.5 mm LCP Medial Distal Tibia Plate has many similarities to traditional plate fixation methods, with a few important improvements. The technical innovation of locking screws provides the ability to create a fixed-angle construct while using familiar AO plating techniques. Locking capability is important for fixed-angle constructs in osteopenic bone or multifragmentary fractures where screw purchase is compromised. These screws do not rely on plate-to-bone compression to resist patient load, but function similarly to multiple, small, angled blade plates. Note: For information on fixation principles using conventional and locked plating techniques, please refer to the Small Fragment Locking Compression Plate (LCP) Technique Guide.

Precontoured plate assists reduction of metaphysis to diaphysis. Stable Fixation Locking screws create a fixed-angle construct, providing angular stability. Preservation of Blood Supply Tapered end for submuscular plate insertion, preserving tissue viability. Limited-contact plate design reduces plate-to-bone contact, limiting vascular trauma and insult to bone. Early Mobilization Early mobilization per standard AO technique creates an environment for bone healing, expediting a return to optimal function. 3 Surgical Technique Preparation Complete the radiographic assessment and prepare the preoperative plan. For a minimally invasive procedure, use the AO ASIF preoperative planning template to determine plate length and screw posi- tions. Position the patient supine on a radiolucent operating table. Visualization of the distal tibia under fluoroscopy in both the lateral and AP views is necessary. Required Sets: The Small Fragment LCP Set [105.434] is required when implanting the 3.5 mm LCP Medial Distal Tibia Plates. 1 Reduce articular surface Reduce the fracture fragments and confirm reduction using image intensification. Reduction may be stabilized using the following methods: 1. Independent Kirschner Wires 2. K-wires through the plate 3. Independent lag screws 4. Lag screws through the plate 5. Locking screws through the plate The locking screws do not provide interfragmentary compression; therefore, any desired compression must be achieved with standard lag screws. The articular fractures must be reduced and compressed prior to fixation of the 3.5 mm LCP Medial Distal Tibia Plate with locking screws. 2.7 mm or 3.5 mm Cortex Screws may also be used as lag screws through the plate by overdrilling the near fragment. Technique Tip: Prior to reduction, application of an external fixator or Large Distractor [394.35] may facilitate visualization and reduction of the joint. Technique Tip: To verify that independent lag screws will not interfere with plate placement, evaluate place- ment on the preoperative plan or intraoperatively with AP and lateral fluoroscopic images. 2 Locking Small Fragment Instrument and Implant Set–LCP, with self-tapping screws 105.434 Insert independent K-wires to reduce fracture fragments. 4 Insert plate For minimally invasive insertion, make a single incision distally and carefully push the plate under the soft tissue. Make stab incisions to insert screws into the shaft. Technique Tip: Use a Threaded Plate Holder [324.031] in one of the distal holes as a handle for percutaneous insertion. Technique Tip: Prior to placing the plate against the bone, thread the 2.8 mm Threaded Drill Guides [312.648] into the distal holes. It is easier to thread these guides into the plate when the plate is off the bone. 4 Surgical Technique (continued) Bend distal tab (optional) Contour the distal tab as necessary with the Universal Bending Pliers [391.963]. 3 Bend the distal tab to fit the medial malleolus using the Universal Bending Pliers. Saphenous Vein Saphenous Nerve 5 Position plate and fix provisionally The plate may be temporarily held in place with standard plate holding forceps or the Push-Pull Reduction Device [324.024], to prevent plate rotation while inserting the first locking screw. K-wires may be used through the plate for provisional fixation. Assure proper reduction prior to insertion of the first locking screw. Locking screw insertion may prevent any further reduction. 5 Hold the plate to the bone using the Push-Pull Reduction Device. Insert screws Determine the combination of 2.7 mm, 3.5 mm and 4.0 mm Cortex, 4.0 Cancellous Bone Screws, and 3.5 mm Locking Screws that will be used for fixation. If a combination of cortex and locking screws will be used, cortex screws should be inserted first to pull the plate to the bone. If using a locking screw as the first screw, be sure the plate is held securely to the bone to prevent plate rotation as the screw is locked to the plate. Reminder: The locking screw is not a lag screw. Use standard screws when requiring a precise anatomical reduction (e.g. joint surfaces) or interfragmentary compression. Before inserting the first locking screw, perform anatomical reduction and fix the fracture with lag screws, if necessary. After the insertion of locking screws, an anatomical reduction will no longer be possible without loosening the locking screws. 6 Insertion of a lag screw through the elongated hole. 324.024 324.024 6 Surgical Technique (continued) Insert screws (continued) Distal locking screw insertion • Screw the 2.8 mm Threaded Drill Guide [312.648] into an LCP plate hole until fully seated. • Use the 2.8 mm Drill Bit [310.288] to drill to the desired depth. • Remove the drill guide. • Use the Depth Gauge [319.01] to determine screw length. • Insert the locking screw under power, using the Torque Limiting Attachment [511.770 or 511.773] and the StarDrive Screwdriver Shaft [314.116], or insert manually, using the StarDrive Screwdriver [314.115]. Note: When using the Torque Limiting Attachment, the screw is securely locked to the plate when a“click” is heard. Warning: Never use the StarDrive shaft directly with power equipment unless using a Torque Limiting Attachment. 6 When inserting 3.5 mm Locking Screws, screw the 2.8 mm Threaded Drill Guide into the hole and then drill with the 2.8 mm Drill Bit. Measure for screw length using the Depth Gauge. Insert a 3.5 mm Locking Screw using the StarDrive Screwdriver Shaft and Torque Limiting Attachment. Screws may also be inserted manually using the StarDrive Screwdriver. To prevent plate rotation, be sure the plate is secured to the bone before inserting the first lag screw. 7 Insert screws (continued) Shaft screw insertion If using the threaded portion of the LCP holes, repeat the steps for distal locking screw insertion. For nonlocking screws, use the standard AO screw insertion technique. 6 Optional Techniques Medial malleolus screw insertion If the tab for the medial malleolus screw is to be utilized, insert either a 3.5 mm Locking Screw or a nonlocking 2.7 mm, 3.5 mm, or 4.0 mm Cortex Screw, or a 4.0 mm Cancellous Bone Screw through the screw hole for malleolus fixation. Use the screw insertion techniques previously described. Depending on the bone quality, screws through the plate shaft can be either bicortical or unicortical. Insert a screw through the distal tab to secure the medial malleolus. Screw placement verification Final position of the locking screws may be verified under image intensification with a K-wire prior to insertion. This is especially important when changing the contour of the plate, or in metaphyseal regions close to joint surfaces. Please refer to the Small Fragment LCP Technique Guide for screw placement verification technique. 8 Optional Procedures Inserting bone graft If desired, fill any metaphyseal bone defect with autogenous bone graft or bone graft substitute. When using bone graft substitute, follow the manufacturer’s directions for use. Implant removal To remove locking screws, unlock all screws from the plate, then remove the screws completely from the bone. This prevents simultaneous rotation of the plate when unlocking the last locking screw. Apply bone graft if necessary.
