Plating SystemsGorilla® Supramalleolar Osteotomy Plating System

The Gorilla® Supramalleolar Osteotomy System was designed to allow surgeons versatility in plate selection and surgical approach for supramalleolar osteotomies. The system has 6 anatomically contoured plate options for osteotomy fixation, which provides surgeons flexibility for the location of the anterior dome osteotomy, and medial opening and closing osteotomies. The anterior tibial plates feature a 5-hole distal cluster to allow for versatility in screw placement and to maximize capture of the distal anterior tibia. The medial plates feature a 3-hole distal cluster to allow for screw placement in the distal media tibia, while providing flexibility for surgeon preference on location of plate and screw fixation. The circular plate holes accept Ø2.7, Ø3.5, or Ø4.2 mm locking or non-locking screws or Ø3.5 mm locking or non-locking compact thread screws, which can be inserted off-axis up to 15°. A proximal compression slot is present in all plates to allow for osteotomy compression through the plate, if desired. The compression slot accepts Ø2.7 mm, Ø3.5 mm, and Ø4.2 mm non-locking screws, and Ø3.5 mm non-locking compact thread screws.
