APTUS® Ankle

The APTUS Ankle Trauma System 2.8/3.5 is designed to provide a variety of fixation options for fractures and osteotomies of the distal tibia and fibula and consists of multiple low profile, straight and anatomically-pre-contoured plates.

The combination of 2.8 and 3.5 screws and TriLock locking technology in the distal hole clusters allows for maximized fixation at the fracture site, especially in osteoporotic bone or comminuted fractures.

Specific plate features such as flaps and very distal 2.8 screw holes allow for the fixation of Wagstaffe fragment, Chaput fragment and distal malleolar fragments.
