4.5 mm LCP Proximal Tibia Plates The Synthes 4.5 mm LCP Proximal Tibia Plate is part of the LCP Periarticular Plating System, which merges locking screw technology with conventional plating techniques. The LCP Periarticular Plating System is capable of addressing complex fractures of the distal femur with the 4.5 mm LCP Condylar Plates, complex fractures of the proximal femur with the 4.5 mm LCP Proximal Femur Plates and 4.5 mm LCP Proximal Femur Hook Plates, and complex fractures of the proximal tibia when using the 4.5 mm LCP Proximal Tibia Plates and 4.5 mm LCP Medial Proximal Tibia Plates. The locking compression plate (LCP) has Combi holes in the plate shaft that combine a dynamic compression unit (DCU) hole with a locking screw hole. The Combi hole provides the flexibility of axial compression and locking capability throughout the length of the plate shaft. Note: For information on fixation principles using conventional and locked plating techniques, please refer to the Synthes Large Fragment Locking Compression Plate (LCP) Technique Guide. The 4.5 mm LCP Proximal Tibia Plate has many similarities to traditional plate fixation methods, with a few important improvements. The technical innovation of locking screws provides the ability to create a fixed-angle construct while using familiar AO plating techniques. Locking capability is important for a fixed-angle construct in osteopenic bone or multifragment fractures where screw purchase is compromised. These screws do not rely on plate-to-bone compression to resist patient load, but function similarly to multiple, small angled blade plates. 2 Synthes 4.5 mm LCP Proximal Tibia Plates Technique Guide

AO Principles In 1958, the AO formulated four basic principles which have become the guidelines for internal fixation. 1 Those principles, as applied to the 4.5 mm LCP Proximal Tibia Plates, are: Anatomic reduction Facilitates restoration of the articular surface using guide wires for reduction and insertion of cannulated screws. Precontoured plate assists reduction of metaphysis to diaphysis. Stable fixation Locking screws create a fixed-angle construct, providing angular stability. Preservation of blood supply Tapered end simplifies submuscular plate insertion, improving tissue viability. Limited-contact design reduces plate-to-bone contact and vascular trauma. Early, active mobilization Plate features combined with AO technique create an environment for bone healing, expediting a return to optimal function. 1. M. E. Müller, M. Allgöwer, R.

Indications The Synthes 4.5 mm LCP Proximal Tibia Plate is intended for treatment of osteopenic bone, tibial osteotomies, nonunions, malunions and fractures of the proximal tibia including: Simple, comminuted fractures Lateral wedge fractures Depression medial wedge fractures Bicondylar combination of lateral wedge and depression fractures Periprosthetic fractures Proximal fractures with associated shaft fractures Synthes 5
Preparation 1 Preparation Required set 01.240.201 Periarticular LCP Plating System with 5.0 mm Locking Screws or 01.240.209 Periarticular LCP Plating System with 4.0 mm Locking Screws Optional sets 01.223.604 Periarticular LCP Plating System Instrument and Titanium Screw Set 01.240.401 Periarticular LCP Plating System, with 5.0 mm Titanium Locking Screws 01.240.409 Periarticular LCP Plating System, with 4.0 mm Titanium Locking Screws Complete the preoperative radiographic assessment and prepare the preoperative plan. Determine plate length and instruments to be used. Determine proximal screw placement and screw lengths to ensure proper screw placement in the metaphysis. Position the patient supine on a radiolucent operating table. Visualization of the proximal tibia under fluoroscopy in both the lateral and AP views is necessary. 6 Synthes 4.5 mm LCP Proximal Tibia Plates Technique Guide
Make Incision and Reduce Articular Surface 2 Make incision Lateral incision A lateral S incision is recommended when a simple articular fracture (AO classification 41-C1) or extra-articular fracture (AO classification 42 or 41A) is present. Anterolateral incision In the presence of a complex intra-articular fracture (AO classification 41-C2 or C3), perform an anterolateral approach. Perform arthrotomy to expose the joint for reduction. Extend the incision for adequate exposure of the joint for reduction and anatomic fixation. 3 Reduce articular surface Instrument 394.35 Large Distractor Kirschner Wires Technique tip: Prior to reduction, application of an external fixator or large distractor may facilitate reduction of the joint. Reduce the fracture fragments and confirm reduction using image intensification. Fragments may be reduced using independent Kirschner wires; however, K-wire holes are also provided on the plate to help achieve provisional reduction, plate position, or fixation. Synthes 7
Attach Wire Guides 3 Reduce articular surface continued The locking screws do not provide interfragment or plate-tobone compression; therefore, any desired compression must be achieved with traditional lag screws. The angular fragments must be reduced and compression must be obtained prior to applying the 4.5 mm LCP proximal tibia plate with locking screws. However, 5.0 mm cannulated conical screws can be used through the head of the plate to compress the plate to the bone. Technique tip: To verify that lag screws will not interfere with plate placement, hold the plate laterally to the bone. 4 Attach wire guides Instruments 310.243 2.5 mm Drill Tip Guide Wire, 200 mm 324.174 2.5 mm Wire Guide, for 5.0 mm screws Before placing the plate against the bone, thread 2.5 mm wire guides into the three (3) proximal holes. If desired, thread a wire guide into the angled hole of the shaft. Note: It is easier to thread these wire guides when the plate is off the bone, and the wire guides can be used as handles to facilitate positioning of the plate on the bone. Insert 2.5 mm drill tip guide wires into each of the wire guides to verify that the wire guides are properly threaded into the plate. The wires in the plate head should be parallel to each other in the transverse plane. The oblique or kickstand wire should buttress the central wire in the plate head. 8 Synthes 4.5 mm LCP Proximal Tibia Plates Technique Guide
Determine Plate Position 5 Determine plate position Instruments 292.652 2.0 mm Non-Colored Threaded Guide Wire 310.243 2.5 mm Drill Tip Guide Wire Using anatomic landmarks and fluoroscopy, mount the plate on the intact or reconstructed plateau without attempting to reduce the distal portion of the fracture. Use the wire guides to help position the plate on the bone. Insert a 2.5 mm guide wire through the 2.5 mm wire guide. Readjust plate position, if necessary. Place a second guide wire to prevent rotation of the plate, and to secure provisional fixation of the plate to the tibial plateau. All three guide wires must be inserted through the 2.5 mm wire guides. Note: Additional 2.0 mm K-wires may be placed in the proximal K-wire holes to hold the plate in position. Confirm plate head placement. Use clinical examination and fluoroscopy to confirm that: Screw trajectories in the proximal locking holes are parallel to the joint in the transverse plane, and the plate is oriented properly on the plateau; Screw and plate placement are consistent with the preoperative plan; and Alignment of the plate to the shaft of the tibia is correct in both the AP and lateral views. Placement of the plate at this point will determine final flexion/extension reduction. Synthes 9
Insert Proximal Screws 6 Insert proximal screws Instruments 310.634 4.3 mm Cannulated Drill Bit 314.05 Cannulated Hexagonal Screwdriver 319.701 Cannulated Screw Measuring Device Note: If required, lag screw reduction of a fragment must be accomplished before inserting locking screws into the fragment. Before inserting the first screw, advance each guide wire until it reaches either the medial cortex or the desired screw tip location when placing convergent screws. If the plate shifts during screw insertion, the guide wires must be removed and reinserted using the wire guides for the screws to lock to the plate properly. Screw length considerations Central locking hole: The locking screw holes in the proximal portion of the plate create a converging screw pattern for improved pullout strength. When using locking screws longer than 60 mm in the anterior and posterior of the three head holes, a central locking screw greater than 70 mm in length may meet with these screws. Measure for screw length using the cannulated screw measuring device. The correct length measurement will place the screw at the tip of the guide wire. Note: The measuring device must contact the end of the wire guide for an accurate measurement. Technique tip: The self-drilling, self-tapping flutes of the 5.0 mm screws make predrilling and pretapping unnecessary in most cases. If necessary in dense bone, the lateral cortex can be predrilled with the 4.3 mm cannulated drill bit, for 5.0 mm screws. 10 Synthes 4.5 mm LCP Proximal Tibia Plates Technique Guide
Remove the wire guide and insert the appropriate length screw over the 2.5 mm guide wire and into the bone, using the cannulated hexagonal screwdriver. Locking screws may be inserted using power equipment. However, DO NOT use power to seat these screws since this may cause screws to cross-thread in the plate holes. Important: Securely tighten all locking screws to lock them to the plate. Note: To compress the plate to the lateral tibial plateau, it is necessary to use a conical screw prior to any locking screws. Conical screws may be replaced with locking screws after reduction is complete. Synthes 11
Reduce Shaft to Tibial Plateau 7 Reduce shaft to tibial plateau Instrument 321.12 Articulated Tension Device Reduce the tibial plateau to the shaft of the tibia using indirect reduction techniques whenever possible. Using atraumatic technique, temporarily secure the plate shaft to the bone with plate holding forceps. Confirm rotation of the extremity by clinical examination. Once reduction is satisfactory, and if it is appropriate based on the fracture morphology, the plate should be loaded in tension using the articulated tension device. Note: With multifragment fractures, it may not always be possible or desirable to achieve anatomic reduction of the fracture. However, in simple fracture patterns, the articulated tension device may facilitate anatomic reduction. This device may be used to generate either compression or distraction. In addition to having threaded locking holes, the plate functions similarly to DCP plates which offer the ability to self-compress fracture fragments. Therefore, a combination of lag screws and locking screws may be used. 12 Synthes 4.5 mm LCP Proximal Tibia Plates Technique Guide
Important: If a combination of cortex (1) and locking screws (2) is used, a cortex screw should be inserted first to pull the plate to the bone. 1 2 2 1 Correct Important: If locking screws (1) have been used to fix the plate to a fragment, subsequent insertion of a cortex screw (2) in the same fragment without loosening and retightening the locking screw is not recommended. 2 1 1 2 Incorrect Synthes 13
Insert Cortex Screws in Plate Shaft 8 Insert 4.5 mm cortex screws in plate shaft Instruments 03.010.150 Star/HexDrive Screwdriver, T25/3.5 mm hexagonal 03.010.151 Star/ HexDrive Screwdriver Shaft, T25/ 3.5 mm hexagonal 310.31 3.2 mm Drill Bit, quick coupling 319.10 Depth Gauge 323.46 4.5 mm Universal Drill Guide Insert as many standard 4.5 mm cortex screws as necessary into the distal portion of the plate. Important: All of the 4.5 mm cortex screws must be inserted prior to insertion of locking screws. Use the 4.5 mm universal drill guide to predrill for 4.5 mm cortex screws and drill through both cortices with the 3.2 mm drill bit. For the neutral position, press the drill guide down in the nonthreaded hole. To obtain compression, place the drill guide at the end of the nonthreaded hole away from the fracture. Do not apply downward pressure on the drill guide s springloaded tip. Note: The DCP and LC-DCP Drill Guides (322.44 and 323.45) are not compatible with the LCP plates. Neutral Compression Measure for screw length using the depth gauge. Select and insert the appropriate length 4.5 mm cortex screw using the large hexagonal screwdriver. 14 Synthes 4.5 mm LCP Proximal Tibia Plates Technique Guide
Insert Locking Screws in Plate Shaft 9 Insert 4.0 mm or 5.0 mm locking screws in plate shaft Instruments 03.010.150 Star/HexDrive Screwdriver, T25/3.5 mm hexagonal 03.010.151 Star/ HexDrive Screwdriver Shaft, T25/ 3.5 mm hexagonal 310.31 3.2 mm Drill Bit or 310.431 4.3 mm Drill Bit 319.10 Depth Gauge, for large screws 324.176 3.2 mm Drill Guide, for 4.0 mm screws or 312.449 4.3 mm Threaded Drill Guide 511.771 Torque Limiting Attachment, 4 Nm or 511.774 Torque Limiting Attachment, 4 Nm, for AO Reaming Coupler Attach the appropriate drill guide to the locking portion of a Combi hole: Use the 3.2 mm drill guide when inserting 4.0 mm locking screws Use the 4.3 mm threaded drill guide when inserting 5.0 mm locking screws Note: Use of the drill guide is required. It will center the drill bit in the threaded portion of the Combi hole to create a screw trajectory that ensures the screw properly engages the plate. Use the appropriate drill bit to drill to the desired depth: Use the 3.2 mm drill bit for 4.0 mm locking screws Use the 4.3 mm drill bit for 5.0 mm locking screws Note: Holes for locking screws may be drilled unicortically or bicortically, depending on bone quality.

Insert Locking Screw into Angled Plate Hole 10 Insert the 5.0 mm cannulated locking screw into the angled hole Instruments 310.243 2.5 mm Drill Tip Guide Wire 314.05 Cannulated Hexagonal Screwdriver 319.701 Cannulated Screw Measuring Device 324.174 2.5 mm Wire Guide, for 5.0 mm screws 511.771 Torque Limiting Attachment, 4 Nm Note: Use the oblique locking position to buttress a medial fragment. If not already done, thread a 2.5 mm wire guide, for 5.0 mm screws into the angled locking hole. Insert a 2.5 mm drill tip guide wire through the 2.5 mm wire guide. Advance the guide wire until it reaches the desired screw tip location. Measure for screw length using the cannulated screw measuring device. The correct length measurement will place the screw at the tip of the guide wire. Use the cannulated hexagonal screwdriver to remove the wire guide. Note: The measuring device must contact the end of the wire guide for an accurate measurement. 16 Synthes 4.5 mm LCP Proximal Tibia Plates Technique Guide
Screw length considerations Angled locking hole: The oblique locking screw in the plate shaft converges with the central locking screw in the plate head for improved pullout strength and fixation. If the oblique locking screw exceeds 65 mm in length, it should contact the proximal locking screw. Technique tip: The self-drilling, self-tapping flutes of the 5.0 mm screws make predrilling and pretapping unnecessary in most cases. If necessary, in dense bone, the lateral cortex can be predrilled with the 4.3 mm cannulated drill bit. Insert the appropriate length cannulated locking screw over the 2.5 mm guide wire and into the bone using the cannulated hexagonal screwdriver. Locking screws may be inserted using power equipment. However, DO NOT use power to seat these screws since this may cause screws to cross-thread in the plate holes. Important: Securely tighten all locking screws to ensure they are locked to the plate. Always use the torque limiting attachment when using power to insert locking screws. Cleaning tip Instruments 319.24 2.9 mm Cleaning Brush 319.461 2.5 mm Cleaning Stylet Cleaning the cannulation in the threaded drill guides is imperative for proper function. Instruments should be cleared intraoperatively using the 2.5 mm cleaning stylet to prevent accumulation of debris in the cannulation. Instruments should be cleaned postoperatively using the stylet and the 2.9 mm cleaning brush. Synthes 17
Postoperative Treatment and Implant Removal Postoperative treatment Postoperative treatment with locking compression plates does not differ from conventional internal fixation procedures. Implant removal To remove locking screws, unlock all screws from the plate; then remove the screws completely from the bone. This prevents simultaneous rotation of the plate when removing the last locking screw. 18 Synthes 4.5 mm LCP Proximal Tibia Plates Technique Guide

5.0 mm Cannulated Locking and Cannulated Conical Screws The screw design enhances fixation and facilitates the surgical procedure. Conical screw head The conical head simplifies alignment in the plate hole. This is of particular importance when using locking screws. The threaded screw head must align with the plate hole threads to provide a secure screw/plate construct. To ensure proper alignment and prevent cross-threading, the appropriate threaded wire guide or drill guide must always be used. Thread profile The shallow thread profile of the locking screws is necessary to provide a larger core. This is appropriate since locking screws do not rely on compression between the plate and the bone to maintain stability. When required, interfragmentary compression can be achieved with the partially threaded cannulated conical screws, especially when near the articular surface. Nonthreaded conical screw head 4.4 mm core diameter 1.0 mm thread pitch 5.0 mm thread profile Threaded conical screw head Large diameter screw core The large diameter screw core improves bending and shear strength, and distributes the load over a larger area in the bone. 5.0 mm cannulated conical screw 5.0 mm cannulated locking screw Screw selection and configuration for the plate head The 5.0 mm cannulated locking screws provide a fixed-angle construct in the metaphysis, while the 5.0 mm cannulated conical screws can be used to gain interfragmentary compression through the plate. This plate can serve as a buttress for a medial wedge. This is accomplished by the convergence of the locking screws in the metaphyseal region and the oblique screw from below. 20 Synthes 4.5 mm LCP Proximal Tibia Plates Technique Guide
