Plates & Screws
Distal Femur Locking Plate with CompressNLock
Anatomic lateral plates for the distal femur. Lock and compress through the same screw.
Product details
CompressNLock
Compression and locking in one screw. In CompressNLock (CNL) plates, the locking screw and the plate hole are designed to work together. As the screw advances, the hole geometry guides the bone fragment toward the fracture line. When the intended compression is reached, the screw locks into the plate and holds it: fracture-surface contact and locked-plate stability without changing screws.
Key features
CompressNLock plates in 3, 6, 9, 12 and 15 holes, left and right.
Titanium alloy plates contoured to the lateral distal femur; the 15-hole plate has a double radius of curvature to follow the femoral bow.
Staggered screw holes spread the screws across the bone for stability and resistance to pull-out.
Subchondral rafting: locking screws run in parallel rows beneath the joint surface to support the subchondral bone.
Locking or non-locking screws in any threaded hole.
Cannulated 5.5 mm locking screws for the condyles, placed over a guide wire.
Minimally invasive insertion with a radiolucent PEEK targeting jig and head and tail guides; MIS trays for left and right.
Colour coded: left plates are blue, right plates are green.
Indications
Fractures, nonunions and malunions, periprosthetic fractures, fractures in normal or osteopenic bone, and osteotomies of the distal femur.
