The Ankle Hook Plate LCP 3.5mm Set with LCP Screws is an advanced orthopedic implant system used for fixation of complex ankle fractures, especially involving the malleoli and distal tibia or fibula. The hook design provides additional grip and support in small or avulsed bone fragments where standard screw fixation alone may not be sufficient.
This plate is commonly used in medial and lateral malleolar fractures, ligament avulsion injuries, and periarticular ankle fractures. The integrated hook elements help secure small bone fragments and maintain proper anatomical alignment of the ankle joint during healing.
The system utilizes 3.5mm locking compression plate (LCP) technology, allowing locking screws to engage securely within the plate. This creates a fixed-angle construct that enhances stability, reduces the risk of screw loosening, and maintains fracture reduction even under weight-bearing conditions.
The combination of hook fixation and locking plate stability provides strong biomechanical support in complex fracture patterns, especially in osteoporotic or comminuted bone conditions.
Manufactured from premium surgical-grade stainless steel or titanium (depending on configuration), the implant offers excellent strength, corrosion resistance, and long-term biocompatibility. Precision-engineered holes ensure accurate screw placement and reliable surgical performance.
This system is widely used in orthopedic trauma surgery and veterinary orthopedic procedures for ankle fracture management.
The set is fully sterilizable and supplied in professional surgical packaging for safe handling and efficient operating room workflow.
