The PERI-LOC^◊ Periarticular Locked Plating System from Smith & Nephew, Inc. offers the advantages of locked plating with the flexibility and benefits of traditional plating in one system. Utilizing both locking and non-locking screws, PERI-LOC^◊ offers a construct that resists angular (e.g. varus/valgus) collapse while simultaneously acting as an effective aid to fracture reduction. A simple and straightforward instrument set features one screwdriver, standardized drill bits, and color-coded instrumentation, making PERI-LOC^◊ efficient and easy to use.

All PERI-LOC^◊ implants are manufactured using the highest quality 316L stainless steel for strength and durability.

The precontour of the 3.5mm and 4.5mm Proximal Tibia Locking Plate provides an excellent fit against the surface of the bone.

Scallops at the proximal end of the plate allow easy placement of lag screws outside the plate for fixation of articular fractures.

Each screw hole in the 3.5mm Lateral Proximal Tibia Locking Plate will accept one of four different screws allowing customization of the screw configuration depending on the individual needs of the fracture:

• 3.5mm Locking Self-Tapping Cortex Screw
• 3.5mm Self-Tapping Cortex Screw (Non-Locking)
• 4.0mm Partially Threaded Cancellous Screw
• 4.0mm Fully Threaded Cancellous Screw

Each screw hole in the 4.5mm Lateral Proximal Tibia Locking Plate will
accept one of four different screws allowing customization of the
screw configuration depending on the individual needs of the
fracture:

• 4.5mm Self-Tapping Cortex Screw (Non-Locking)
• 4.5mm Locking Self-Tapping Cortex Screw
• 5.7mm Cannulated Locking Screw
• 6.5mm Partially Threaded Cancellous Screw
