Osteotomy System

Acumed’s Ulnar Shortening Plate offers a locking low-profile plate with built-in osteotomy reference lines. The advanced cutting guide offers precision with out the technical difficulties of other cutting systems.

The plate offers locking screws which sit below the plate surface when fully seated and the interfragmentary lag screw can be placed in two locations to compress the osteotomy securely. The plate offers the option to lock up to three screws distally and one proximally.

Acumed’s streamlined Osteotomy System is precision, simplified.

Key Features

• Built-in osteotomy reference guides: Measurement lines — in 2mm increments — reference the amount of shortening desired and reduce X-ray use to determine shortening.
• Simplified osteotomy guide: The cutting guide offers continuous adjustment from 1mm to 10mm to allow precisely the amount of resection desired.
• Advanced instrumentation: The reduction clamp’s speed-lock wheel allows hands-free compression and the multipurpose temporary reduction peg stabilizes the ulna to maintain rotational alignment while creating the osteotomy — significantly simplifying the procedure.
