“The Leporello Proximal Ulna Plates reduce complexity in fracture treatment by their excellent anatomical fit and by incorporating the advantages of tension-band wiring into the plate design. The two plate variants cover all complex olecranon and monteggia-like proximal ulna fractures.”

ADAPT WITH EASE
The implant provides a low profile design with a carefully considered curvature, allowing for the adaptation to the proximal aspect of the ulna and the shaft. The most proximal hole is easily bendable, should further contouring be required.
BIPLANAR FIXATION
The proximal screw holes allow the placement of a maximum of three screws adjacent to the joint line. Two of these screws may be placed divergently. One or more shaft screws may then be placed rectangularly between them to allow for a true bi-planar fixation.
REDUCE AND COMPRESS
Suture holes are positioned on the plate to enable the surgeon to effectively apply the tension band technique to the olecranon. Additionally, the most proximal K-wire hole may be used in combination with a cortical screw in the oblong hole in order to apply interfragmentary compression.
