Synthes 440.529 Ti LC-DCP Lateral Tibial Head Buttress Plate 9 Holes 202mm

Synthes 440.529 Ti LC-DCP Lateral Tibial Head Buttress Plate 9 Holes 202mm

As a 9-hole plate measuring 202mm in length, it provides an extended bridging span for fractures that extend from the metaphyseal head into the tibial diaphysis.

Technical specifications

• Brand: Synthes
• Reference / model: 440.529
• Model: / REF: 440.529
• Material: Titanium (Ti)
• Overall Length: 202 mm

Additional product details

• Manufacturer: Synthes (DePuy Synthes)
• Plate Type: LC-DCP (Limited Contact Dynamic Compression Plate)
• Hole Count: 9 Holes
• Hole Spacing: 18 mm (Center-to-Center)
• Screw Compatibility: 4.5 mm Cortex Screws (Shaft); 6.5 mm Cancellous Screws (Proximal Head)
• Quantity: 1 Each
• Limited Contact (LC) Design: The undersurface of the plate is precision-milled to reduce surface contact with the periosteum.
• Dynamic Compression (DC) Capability: The plate holes are engineered to allow for dynamic compression. When screws are placed eccentrically in the hole, the plate shifts, drawing bone fragments together across the fracture line to achieve rigid internal fixation.
• Hybrid Screw Fixation: The proximal holes are specifically designed to accommodate 6.5mm cancellous screws, which provide deep, stable anchorage in the spongy bone of the tibial head. The shaft holes utilize 4.5mm cortex screws for robust diaphyseal purchase.
• Titanium Biocompatibility: Titanium is non-ferromagnetic and highly corrosion-resistant. It produces significantly fewer artifacts on post-operative MRI and CT scans compared to stainless steel, allowing for clearer assessment of joint alignment and healing.
• Tibial Plateau Fractures: Stabilization of lateral split and depression fractures (Schatzker I and II).
• Complex Proximal Tibia Trauma: Management of bicondylar fractures (Schatzker VI) when used in a dual-plating construct.
• Proximal Tibial Osteotomies: Providing stable fixation for realignment procedures.
• Non-union & Revision Surgery: Utilizing the extended 202mm length to bridge compromised bone segments in the proximal third of the tibia.
• Status: NEW — Factory Sealed.
• Integrity: The implant is securely housed within its original manufacturer's packaging. Both inner and outer seals are intact, ensuring full material integrity and suitability for clinical use in 2026.
