Fractures of the calcaneal tuberosity, particularly avulsion fractures where the Achilles tendon insertion pulls a fragment of bone away (commonly known as tongue-type fractures), present unique surgical challenges. The strong tensile forces exerted by the triceps surae muscle group often lead to displacement and skin tenting, requiring immediate and rigid internal fixation.<\/p>\n<p>Our <strong>Posterior Tuberosity Calcaneal Locking Plate<\/strong> is developed to withstand these forces. By providing a stable, fixed-angle construct, this system allows orthopedic surgeons to securely reduce the fracture gap and permit early range-of-motion exercises, which is critical for preventing stiffness and ensuring a return to function. As a trusted partner for global medical distributors, OrthoPro ensures that every plate meets rigorous international quality standards.<\/p>\n<h3>Anatomical Design and Biomechanical Advantages<\/h3>\n<p>The posterior aspect of the heel has very thin soft tissue coverage, making it highly susceptible to wound complications and hardware irritation. The <strong>MD Posterior Tuberosity Calcaneal Locking Plate<\/strong> addresses these issues through its thoughtful design:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Arquitectura de bajo perfil:<\/strong> The plate is manufactured with a reduced thickness and tapered edges. This minimizes the prominence of the implant under the skin, reducing the risk of posterior heel pain and shoe wear difficulties post-recovery.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Anatomical Contouring:<\/strong> Pre-shaped to fit the complex curvature of the calcaneal tuberosity, the plate reduces the need for intraoperative bending. This preserves the metal&#8217;s fatigue strength and shortens surgical time.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Anti-Rotation Stability:<\/strong> The screw configuration is optimized to capture the tuberosity fragment securely, preventing rotation and re-displacement caused by the pull of the Achilles tendon.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Advanced Locking Technology<\/h3>\n<p>In many cases, calcaneal fractures occur in elderly patients with osteopenic bone. Traditional screws may fail to hold in such compromised bone stock. Our locking plate technology offers a solution:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Fixed-Angle Construct:<\/strong> The locking screws thread into the plate, creating a single rigid unit. This does not rely solely on friction between the plate and bone, providing superior hold in soft or comminuted bone.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Variable Fixation Options:<\/strong> The system includes combination holes that accept both locking screws for stability and cortical screws for dynamic compression, giving surgeons flexibility based on the fracture pattern.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Proximal Extension:<\/strong> The plate design often extends superiorly to capture high avulsion fragments, ensuring that the tendon insertion is neutralized effectively.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Indications for Use<\/h3>\n<p>El <strong>MD Posterior Tuberosity Calcaneal Locking Plate<\/strong> is indicated for the following specific trauma scenarios:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Extra-articular fractures of the calcaneal tuberosity.<\/li>\n<li>Avulsion fractures of the calcaneus (Duck-bill or Tongue-type fractures).<\/li>\n<li>Osteotomies of the posterior calcaneus (e.g., Dwyer osteotomy).<\/li>\n<li>Non-unions or malunions of the posterior calcaneus.<\/li>\n<li>Fixation in patients with poor bone quality where traditional screws are insufficient.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Garant\u00eda de material y calidad<\/h3>\n<p>At OrthoPro, quality is non-negotiable. Our plates are manufactured from medical-grade <strong>Titanium Alloy (Ti-6Al-4V)<\/strong> or Pure Titanium. This material is chosen for its exceptional strength-to-weight ratio, high biocompatibility, and resistance to corrosion. Furthermore, titanium implants produce fewer artifacts in MRI and CT scans compared to stainless steel, allowing for better post-operative imaging and assessment.<\/p>\n<h3>Especificaciones t\u00e9cnicas<\/h3>\n<p>We offer a comprehensive range of sizes to accommodate different patient anatomies.
