The Plantar Lapidus Plate was designed to provide fixation for a lapidus procedure. The plate is placed plantar on the 1st tarsometatarsal (TMT) joint and is fixed with two 3.5 mm locking screws at both the distal and proximal ends, optimizing construct strength. The precontoured left and right plates allow secure plantar placement and spare the tibialis anterior tendon. The plantar plate provides compression over the entire arthrodesis area and eliminates the need for an additional dorsal compression screw. The plantar fixation of the lapidus arthrodesis minimizes soft-tissue irritation and avoids gapping of the arthrodesis during early weightbearing.
