The TPLO locking plate was developed through extensive research and development to provide a high-quality plate that can be consistently and reliably positioned for improved efficiency in the OR.
 
For dogs with severe instability, the InternalBrace™ ligament repair technique can be used with the plate for knotless, antirotational lateral stability.
<ul>
 <li>Caudal tilt is ideal for screw purchase</li>
 <li>Proximal screw trajectory helps avoid the osteotomy</li>
 <li>Less contouring required</li>
</ul>
 
The InternalBrace surgical technique is intended only to augment the primary repair/reconstruction by expanding the area of tissue approximation during the healing period and is not intended as a replacement for the native ligament. The InternalBrace technique is for use during soft tissue-to-bone fixation procedures and is not cleared for bone-to-bone fixation.

3.5 mm TPLO Plates and Screws

Child (D)

The OrthoLine MPL plates follow the same anatomic engineering principles as the Tibial Plateau Leveling Osteotomy (TPLO) Plating System, with additional features to address medial patellar luxation.&nbsp;The MPL plate includes a step to offset the fragment from the long bone of the tibia, creating medial tibial plateau translation as well as a locking screw distal to the cut to protect the osteotomy.&nbsp;The plates are also designed with proximal and distal locking holes to reduce prominence under the skin. Additionally, proximal screw holes follow specific trajectories within the proximal fragment.&nbsp;
 
The distal end has limited bone contact and includes two K-wire holes to aid in positioning. The plates are contoured to the bone and marked with a laser line to indicate optimal positioning and step location. The plates also include a proximal suture hole to enable InternalBrace™ repair for additional rotational stability. Holes on the cranial aspect of the plate's distal end enable soft-tissue closure with VetSuture™ suture.&nbsp;
 
The OrthoLine MPL plating system was created by veterinarians for veterinarians to help make the procedure more reproducible and support happier, healthier patients. &nbsp; 
 

Sizes include 1.6 mm, 2.0 mm, 2.4 mm, 2.7 mm, 3.0 mm, 3.5 mm small, 3.5 mm standard, and 3.5 mm broad plates, all in left and right options.

OrthoLine™ Medial Patellar Luxation (MPL) System

The OrthoLine fracture management system allows surgeons to perform fracture repair using the same screws used in the TPLO System. The state-of-the-art, 99-plate fracture line includes 1.6 mm, 1.6 mm broad, 2.0 mm, 2.4 mm, 3.0 mm, and 3.5 mm straight and T-style plates, as well as 3.5 mm broad straight plates, for both feline and canine patients.
Designed with the surgeon in mind, the plates include many features to help create a more reproducible procedure. The locking straight plates include a slide hole, which allows slight movement across the fracture line to facilitate optimal plate placement. The low-profile design reduces prominence under the skin and features limited bone-to-plate contact. Plate size and length were specifically designed to include hole-to-hole spacing.
Tight screw density on the distal and proximal ends, combined with larger bridges near the center of the plate, allows surgeons to fit more screws within the same footprint than competitive plates. Additional features designed to aid plate placement include K-wire holes, variable-angle locking (VAL) screws for the titanium lines, slide holes, and compression holes. OrthoLine plates can be contoured using size-specific bending irons and cannulated bending plugs, which can also function as K-wire holes in any locking screw hole.
The fracture management system also includes a variety of screw options, including fully threaded headless compression screws, partially threaded screws, cannulated lag screws, low-profile screws, KreuLock™ locking compression screws, and QuickFix cannulated screws.
<ul>
 <li>Accommodates high screw density where needed</li>
 <li>Slide and compression holes</li>
 <li>Strong plate for bridging</li>
 <li>Low plate contact and low profile</li>
 <li>Color-coded for easier identification</li>
 <li>K-wire holes</li>
 <li>Cortical, locking, and VAL screws</li>
 <li>Indicated for sizes ranging from small cats to large dogs</li>
</ul>

OrthoLine™ Fracture System

The OrthoLine radial fracture plate system includes 1.6 mm, 1.6 mm broad, 2.0 mm, 2.4 mm, 3.0 mm, and 3.5 mm sizes. Each plate is anatomically contoured to mimic the anatomy of patients within a given size range. The system features multiplanar distal screw trajectories and centrally aligned proximal screws to improve screw pullout. The plates are thinner than standard T-plates or straight plates, minimizing soft-tissue interference. The tubular bottom enhances conformity to the patient’s bone structure and increases the area moment of inertia. Additionally, the unique design includes bending plugs, multiple K-wire holes for preliminary placement, and a fracture-spanning bridge with a compression screw hole that provides compression across the fracture site while sparing the abductor pollicis longus tendon in a cranial-medial placement. While the plates are primarily designed for cranial-medial placement, they can also be used for cranial-lateral placement with the contralateral side plate.

OrthoLine™ Radial Fracture System

The OrthoLine distal humeral fracture system is the first of its kind to incorporate a transcondylar screw for distal humeral medial, supracondylar, Y-shaped, and T-shaped fractures.
 
Designed with the surgeon in mind, OrthoLine distal humeral plates are anatomic, incorporating the transcondylar screw within the construct and a specific trajectory to help with proper transcondylar screw placement. Screws are compatible across the OrthoLine plate line and with the Arthrex TPLO System. Designed for both feline and canine patients, the plates are available in 1.6 mm/2.0 mm, 2.4 mm, 3.0 mm, and 3.5 mm sizes.
 
Repair medial, supracondylar, Y-shaped, and T-shaped fractures with a single-plate construct using a K-wire on the lateral aspect for Y-shaped and T-shaped fractures when placing the plate medially. The epicondylar oval hole helps the surgeon identify the appropriate location for plate placement while providing relief for the epicondyle.
