The articular surfaces should be prepared
using standard procedure, for cartilage
resection and/or bone graft placement (figure

If necessary, deformity correction and
alignment should also be performed
Compression with separate fixation screws
may be done prior to plate application.
Should this be required, one should take
care that these separate fixation scews
do not hinder late positioning of the T.T.C.
Plate and screws.
