2.7/3.5mm Locking Pilon (Cruciform) Plate – SS/TT

Description

The 2.7/3.5mm Locking Pilon (Cruciform) Plate – SS/TT is a specially engineered implant designed for treating pilon fractures—complex intra-articular injuries of the distal tibia involving the weight-bearing tibial plafond. The unique cruciform (cross-shaped) design enables multi-directional fixation of articular fragments, providing strong buttress support and anatomical reconstruction.

This implant is especially useful in fractures with:

• Intra-articular split and depression

• Comminution of the tibial plafond

• Distal tibia periarticular involvement

• Osteoporotic bone requiring angular stability

• Complex high-energy ankle injuries (pilon fractures)

The plate uses 2.7mm locking screws in the distal articular region for fine fragment fixation and 3.5mm locking/cortical screws in the shaft for strong metaphyseal stability. This hybrid screw compatibility creates a rigid fixed-angle construct ideal for challenging tibial fractures.

Key Features

• Cruciform (cross-shaped) design for multidirectional articular support

• Distal holes compatible with 2.7mm locking screws

• Shaft holes compatible with 3.5mm locking & cortical screws

• Ideal for intra-articular and high-energy pilon fractures

• Provides excellent buttress support for articular surface

• Anatomically contoured for distal tibia

• Low-profile design reduces soft-tissue irritation

• Made from Stainless Steel (SS) and Titanium (TT)

This plate is preferred for restoring joint alignment, preventing articular collapse, and ensuring stable fixation during recovery.
