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 to optimize construct strength. The precontoured left and right plates allow secure plantar placement and spare the tibialis anterior tendon. The plantar Lapidus plate provides compression over the entire arthrodesis area using a solid 4.0 mm compression screw through the plate. The plantar orientation avoids gapping of the arthrodesis site during early weightbearing.1

Plantar Lapidus Plate

Child (D)

The Arthrex CFS plating system combines many of our current midfoot, forefoot, and hindfoot plate and screw systems into one set (AR-8950S). The set is conveniently divided into 2.4/3.0 mm and 3.5/4.0 mm (AR-8950S-01 and AR-8950S-02) modules that house the new Metatarsal Plates, TMT Plates, x-Plates, and newly revised H-Plates. Also included in the set are the Lapidus, Lisfranc, Opening Wedge, and MTP Plates. Screws are provided in locking and nonlocking options for 2.4 mm, 3 mm, 3.5 mm, and 4 mm sizes along with 3 mm and 4 mm cannulated screws. Presenting all of these components in one set gives surgeons the flexibility to choose the ideal plating system for any need. In addition, the new Mini Joint Distractor offers greater flexibility for joint preparation, visualization, and intraoperative compression of the fracture or fusion site.

Procedure

The Lapidus procedure is an arthrodesis of the 1st metatarsocuneiform joint. It is performed most commonly as a method to reduce the intermetatarsal angle (IMA) in the setting of hypermobility or arthritis of the 1st metatarsocuneiform joint.

Lapidus Hallux Valgus Correction

Arthrex has a wide array of midfoot plating options housed in the CFS set. The surgeon can choose from specific TMT plates, H-plates, Lapidus plates, dorsal midfoot fusion plates, medial column plates, or mesh plates. The instrumentation for these implants is straightforward and easy to use, assisting the surgeon with distraction, provisional fixation, and other elements of the procedure.
