MT Cuboid Locking Plate System | Titanium Implant for Midfoot & Nutcracker Fracture Fixation

The MT Cuboid Locking Plate is expertly engineered for the stabilization of complex cuboid fractures and lateral column shortening. Featuring a low-profile anatomical contour, this MT Cuboid Locking Plate ensures rigid fixation for comminuted injuries while minimizing soft tissue irritation. Ideally suited for “nutcracker” fractures, our MT Cuboid Locking Plate system restores midfoot length and alignment effectively.

Restoring Lateral Column Stability with the MT Cuboid Locking Plate

OrthoPro is proud to present the MT Cuboid Locking Plate, a specialized orthopedic implant designed to address the challenging anatomy of the lateral midfoot. Fractures of the cuboid bone, particularly comminuted “nutcracker” fractures resulting from axial compression, require precise restoration of bone length and joint surface alignment. Our plating system provides the structural integrity needed to maintain the lateral column’s length, preventing long-term deformity and disability.

As a dedicated partner to global medical distributors and hospitals, OrthoPro ensures that every MT Cuboid Locking Plate is manufactured to the highest standards of quality and precision. By combining advanced locking technology with an anatomical fit, we offer a solution that simplifies surgical procedures and enhances patient recovery outcomes.

Clinical Challenges and Solutions

The cuboid bone plays a pivotal role in the stability of the lateral column of the foot. Injuries here often involve impaction and loss of length. The MT Cuboid Locking Plate addresses these issues through:

  • Anatomical Contouring: The plate is pre-shaped to match the complex, saddle-shaped articular surface and the curvature of the cuboid, reducing the need for extensive intraoperative bending.
  • Bridge Plating Capability: In cases of severe comminution where anatomical reconstruction of every fragment is impossible, the plate acts as a bridge, spanning the fracture zone to maintain length and alignment until healing occurs.
  • Low-Profile Design: Given the limited soft tissue coverage on the lateral aspect of the foot, our plates feature a reduced thickness and rounded edges to minimize irritation to the peroneal tendons and overlying skin.

Advanced Locking Technology

Stability is paramount in midfoot reconstruction. Our system utilizes a state-of-the-art locking mechanism that creates a fixed-angle construct.

  • Screw Versatility: The combination holes allow surgeons to choose between locking screws for angular stability and cortical screws for compression, depending on the bone quality and fracture pattern.
  • Multi-Planar Fixation: The screw trajectories are optimized to capture multiple bone fragments and provide secure purchase in the dense bone of the calcaneus and metatarsals if bridging is required.
  • Osteopenic Bone Solution: The locking construct is particularly beneficial for elderly patients or those with poor bone quality, significantly reducing the risk of screw toggle and back-out.

Indications for Use

The MT Cuboid Locking Plate is indicated for a specific range of midfoot traumas and reconstructions:

  • Extra-articular and intra-articular fractures of the cuboid.
  • Comminuted fractures requiring open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF).
  • “Nutcracker” fractures involving lateral column shortening.
  • Non-unions or malunions of the cuboid.
  • Reconstructive surgery involving the calcaneocuboid or cuboideonavicular joints.
