Description

The Ankle Osteosynthesis System from DePuy Synthes provides a complete solution for the surgical treatment of ankle fractures, ranging from simple malleolar breaks to complex intra-articular injuries.

Its low-profile anatomical plates, available for medial, lateral, and posterior malleoli, are designed to conform closely to bone morphology while minimizing soft-tissue irritation. Options include hook plates, one-third tubular plates, T-plates, and variable-angle locking plates, allowing surgeons to adapt fixation strategies to each fracture pattern. The system features cortical, cancellous, and locking screws of various sizes, manufactured from high-strength titanium or surgical stainless steel. Angular stable locking technology provides secure fixation even in osteoporotic bone, minimizing the risk of reduction loss or secondary displacement.

The modular instrument set enables precise plate and screw placement under fluoroscopic guidance, facilitating anatomical alignment and reducing operative time.
Indicated for unimalleolar, bimalleolar, trimalleolar, and fracture-dislocation cases, the system also supports corrective osteotomies of the ankle.
With proven biomechanical stability and excellent clinical outcomes, the Ankle System is a cornerstone in modern fracture management, promoting anatomical restoration and reducing post-traumatic arthritis risk.
