The drilling sleeves (129135ND) are first screwed
in the hole located
on the anterior extremity and in the 2 holes on
the posterior extremity of the plate
They allow axial drilling and perfect insertion
of the locking screws
The holes for fixation screws are drilled using
the 2.2 mm drill (119006ND)
through the drilling sleeves
The plate is fixed using specific 3.5 mm screws
The appropriate length of the screws to be inserted
is evaluated
using the depth gauge (129134ND)
Color coding of each size of screw allows for
quick choice of the
adequate length to be used
Holes in the plate allow fixation with up to
4 screws in the posterior
tuberosity (2 locking screws and 2 variable angle
screws), and 3 screws
in the anterior process (1 locking screw and 2
variable angle screws)
If there is a fracture of the anterior process
of the calcaneus, it will be
temporarily stabilized with Kirschner wires
The screws are inserted with the specific screwdriver
(129132ND)
in a normal way, and introduced in the bone until
the base of their
head is blocked against the plate
