Distal Tibial Malleolar Locking Plate

Kangli Orthopaedics manufactures this Pure Titanium distal tibial malleolar locking plate for posterior malleolus and ankle joint fracture fixation. Its clustered distal openings are arranged around the irregular malleolar region, with angled apertures directing fixation toward different areas of the fragment zone. The elongated, contoured shaft extends the fixation pattern along the distal tibia.

Distal Aperture Layout for Posterior Malleolus Fixation

The broad distal section combines circular and oblong openings around the terminal contour. This concentrated layout provides multiple fixation positions near the posterior malleolus, rather than distributing all apertures along a straight shaft.

Angled Openings for Malleolar Fragment Positioning

Openings near the distal tip are oriented in different directions, while the surrounding lobes provide additional circular fixation positions. This varied aperture geometry allows the selected fixation points to be approached from different trajectories within the uneven malleolar region.

Extended Shaft Along the Distal Tibia

The clustered distal section transitions into an elongated shaft with regularly spaced openings leading toward the rounded proximal end. This configuration extends the fixation line from the posterior malleolus along the distal tibia.

Contoured Profile for Distal Tibial Placement

Rounded ends, scalloped lateral edges and a gently curved profile define the plate perimeter. These features create gradual transitions around the apertures and follow the changing contour from the malleolar region into the tibial shaft.

Common Fixation Applications

• Posterior malleolus fracture fixation
• Distal tibial fracture fixation
• Ankle joint fracture fixation
• Locking plate fixation of posterior malleolar fragments

For ankle fixation planning, this plate is listed alongside the Distal Tibial Lateral (Reconstruction) Locking Plate, which provides a different distal tibial plate orientation.
