Ankle Fracture Plating System
The Gorilla® Ankle Fracture Plating System was designed to give the surgeon
options including straight fibular, anatomic fibular, medial malleolus, posterior
fibula and posterior tibia plates. All plates are low-profile, with recessed holes
that allow for a locking or non-locking screw to be placed, depending on surgeon preference.
The recess is built in the hole to accommodate syndesmotic fixation while providing
protection against screw head prominence when screws are placed off-axis.
There are 44 plate options in 7 different families. These include:
Anatomic Fibula Plates
Straight Fibula Plates
Medial Malleolus Plate
Posterolateral Fibula Plates
Posterolateral Tibia Plates
Posteromedial Tibia Plates
Trimalleolar Fracture Plates
Paragon 28®'s Design Rationale
With posterior plating becoming a more common means of treating distal tibia and
fibula fractures over an anterior to posterior approach, Paragon 28 wanted to
provide surgeons with a complete offering to address these fractures in the manner
they prefer.
With our already robust Ankle Fracture Plating System, we now also include a full
offering of Posterolateral Fibula, Posterolateral Tibia, Posteromedial Tibia and
posterior tibia Trimalleolar Fracture Plates.
