Operative Technique Step 2 – Plate Insertion Handle Assembly Screw the Connetion Pin (REF 703521) to the plate using the hex Screwdriver 3.5/4.3mm (REF 703537) (Fig. 3A). Connect the Adaptor Nut (REF 702977) to the Plate Adaptor (REF 703523/703522) and slide the Plate Adaptor over the Connecting Pin with the connecting part for the Targeting Arm pointing to the anterior curvature of the plate. After correct engagement of the alignment teeth in the corresponding grooves in the plate, secure the Plate Adaptor by tightening the Adaptor Nut with the same hex Screwdriver (Fig. 3B). It is recommended to provisionally apply the corresponding Targeting Arm to check the correct alignment of the Targeting Device and plate. Insert a Drill through the assembled Tissue Protection Sleeve and Drill Sleeve (REF’s 703532, 703534 and 703541) into the relevant threaded plate hole prior to plate application. The Targeting Arm can now be removed again. The Plate Insertion Handle (REF 702978) can now be attached to help facilitate plate positioning and sliding of longer plates sub-muscularly (Fig. 3).

Operative Technique Step 3 – Submuscular Plate Application When implanting longer plates, a minimally invasive technique can be used. The Soft Tissue Elevator (REF 702782) has been designed to create a pathway for the implant (Fig. 4). The implant has a special rounded and tapered end, which further allows for smooth insertion under the soft tissue. Fig. 4 After the skin incision is performed and anatomical reduction is achieved, apply the plate to the lateral condyle. The proper position is when the distal and anterior margin of the plate is approx. 10mm from the articular surface (Fig. 5). Essentially, ensuring that the most distal Locking Screws are directly supporting the joint surface. Fig. 5 In addition, Plate End Markers (REF 703530) may be inserted into the appropriate holes of the Targeting Arm to assist in locating the plate end and holes with Locking Inserts during the entire procedure (Fig. 6).
