س1: What is an LCP Distal Fibular Plate used for?
أ1: It is used for fixation of distal fibular fractures, including lateral malleolus fractures, comminuted fractures, and osteoporotic bone injuries.
Q2: Why is the LCP design preferred over conventional plating?
A2: Locking screws provide angular stability, maintain fracture reduction, and are especially effective in osteoporotic or comminuted bone.
س3: What material is the Distal Fibula Plate made from?
A3: It is typically made from medical-grade titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V) or stainless steel, offering high strength, corrosion resistance, and biocompatibility.
س 4: How is the plate anatomically contoured?
A4: The plate is pre-contoured to fit the lateral distal fibula, reducing the need for intraoperative bending and improving screw alignment.
س5: What types of screws are compatible with this plate?
A5: It uses locking screws for angular stability and cortical screws for compression at the fracture site.
س6: Can this plate be used for minimally invasive techniques?
أ6: نعم, it supports percutaneous or MIPPO (Minimally Invasive Percutaneous Plate Osteosynthesis) approaches, minimizing soft tissue disruption.
س7: Are there different sizes of the LCP Distal Fibular Plate?
أ7: نعم, plates come in various lengths and hole configurations to accommodate different fracture patterns and patient anatomies.
Q8: What are common indications for this plate?
A8: Indications include isolated lateral malleolus fractures, distal fibula fractures with syndesmotic injury, and osteoporotic fractures requiring stable fixation.
Q9: What complications may arise after distal fibular plating?
A9: Potential complications include hardware irritation, wound problems, malreduction, or delayed union, which can be minimized with careful surgical technique.
Q10: When can patients start weight-bearing after surgery?
A10: Partial weight-bearing can usually begin after 4–6 weeks, depending on fracture stability and bone healing assessed radiographically.
