A distal tibia plating system includes anterolateral (10) and medial plates (110). The anterolateral plate includes a shaft (12) with both threaded first fastener holes (24) and compression slots (26) along its length. The head includes a first row of four threaded fastener holes arranged transversely to the longitudinal axis, a non- threaded compression screw hole, and a plurality of distal tabs (38). Each tab includes a ring (38) with a single threaded fastener hole and a bridge (50) that couples the ring to the distal end of the plate. The bridge is configured to bend preferentially in a desired direction and to allow tab removal. The medial plate (110) is a low profile plate including a shaft (112) and a relatively enlarged distal head (116). Several fasteners (500) can be used with the plates. A plate holder (400) is provided to maneuver the plates subcutaneously.

L'invention porte sur un système de pose de plaque d'ostéosynthèse tibiale distale qui comprend une plaque antérolatérale et une plaque médiale. La plaque antérolatérale comporte une tige sur la longueur de laquelle sont ménagés de premiers trous de fixation filetés et des fentes de compression. La tête comporte une première rangée de quatre trous de fixation filetés agencés transversalement par rapport à l'axe longitudinal, un trou de vis de compression non fileté et une pluralité de pattes distales. Chaque patte comprend un anneau muni d'un seul trou de fixation fileté et d'un pont qui relie l'anneau à l'extrémité distale de la plaque. Le pont est configuré pour se plier de préférence dans une direction désirée et pour permettre le retrait de la patte. La plaque médiale est une plaque à faible projection comprenant un axe et une tête distale relativement élargie. Diverses attaches peuvent être utilisées avec les plaques. Un porte-plaques autorise la manoeuvre sous-cutanée des plaques.
