Visoss Lateral Distal-Fibula-System

for the lateral fixation of fractures (Weber A, B and C), osteotomies, and pseudoarthroses of the distal fibula.

Features & Benefits

The shape and the profile of the plate are adapted to the anatomy of the fibula and facilitate an optimal positioning on the bone.

The spoon-like design of the plate allows for the reconstruction of small fragmented fibulae.

The polyaxial locking head screws enable multidirectional insertion at an angle up to 15° (off-axis screw angulation) in all directions and therefore provide the necessary intraoperative flexibility to consider individually particular fracture patterns.

The spike on the distal head of the plate prevents slippage of the plate on the bone.

The distal placement of up to seven angular stable screws provides a stable support of the fracture. With stable syndesmotic ligaments a rapid, loaded mobilization is supported.

Rounded edges, the slim plate profile, the smooth coated surface as well as screws that sit flush on the plate reduce the risk of irritation of the surrounding soft tissue.

Dedicated Kirschner wire holes in the plate allow for temporary Kirschner wire fixation to facilitate the positioning of the plate on the bone.

The special surface coating of the plates and screws (Type II anodization) favours a simplified removal of the implants after fracture healing.

The T10 screw drive ensures optimal force transmission, reduces the risk of deformation of the screw drive and allows for self-retention of the screw on the screwdriver.

Clinical Case

17-year-old male patient, multi-fragmentary distal fibula fracture due to a suppination trauma of the left ankle joint.
