6 Indications The 1 st MTP Fusion Plate of the Variable Angle LCP Forefoot/Midfoot System 2.4 / 2.7 is indicated for deformations of the 1 st metatarsophalangeal (MTP) joint (Hallux Rigidus) and fractures, nonunions and replantations of the first metatarsal bone, particularly in osteopenic bone. 4 Synthes Variable Angle LCP 1 st MTP Fusion Plates 2.4 / 2.7 Technique Guide

7 Controlled Compression Technique The plates included in the Variable Angle LCP Forefoot / Midfoot System 2.4 / 2.7 aid in reconstructive foot surgery by allowing controlled compression with the use of compression wires and compression forceps. Compression feature Allows for up to 4 mm of compression Tactile compression Designed within the plate to minimize additional soft tissue dissection Allows for final screw fixation after compression is achieved Compression slot Compression wire hole Compression wires 1.6 mm diameter, 150 mm overall length Seven thread lengths: 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35 and 40 mm Stop feature allows for quick and easy preliminary plate fixation, which eliminates the need for plate holding forceps or another hand to hold the plate to the bone Spherical stop: Designed to be seated on top of compression wire holes and compression slots, and inside variable angle LCP holes Allows for off-axis wire insertion while maintaining the compression feature capability Material: Cobalt chromium alloy that is stiffer than conventional stainless steel Spherical stop Compression forceps Spherical shaped recess matches the spherical stops on the compression wires, which ensures the forceps grasp the stops regardless of the angle in which the wires were inserted Locking ratcheting mechanism holds compression during insertion of fixation screws Simple lightweight design does not require holding during insertion of fixation screws Synthes 5

8 Controlled Compression Technique 1 Position plate Place the plate on the bone, ensuring that the plate is placed appropriately according to the specific procedure. 6 Synthes Variable Angle LCP 1 st MTP Fusion Plates 2.4 / 2.7 Technique Guide

9 2 Insert compression wires Instrument Compression Wire 1.6 mm, length 150 mm, thread length mm Estimate the appropriate thread length needed for the plate and bone combination. Bicortical fixation is recommended. Using a wire driver, insert the compression wire through the compression wire hole and through both bone cortices. Important: To minimize stripping of the bone threads, slow the insertion once the spherical stop of the wire gets close to the plate. Slowly control the insertion to achieve good compression of the wire to the plate and to the bone. High power insertion and stripping of the bone threads can lead to loosening of the compression wires and reduced compression. Insert the second compression wire into the far side of the slot. Synthes 7

10 Controlled Compression Technique 3 Compress using forceps Instrument Compression Forceps for use with Compression Wire Move the ratcheting switch so the forceps ratchet when closing preventing the spring from opening the forceps. Place the compression forceps in position, ensuring that the arms are around the compression wire spheres. Compress by squeezing the handles. Important: Compression is tactile, but be careful not to over compress. This may cause the compression wires to strip out of the bone. When the ratcheting mechanism is in the correct position, compression can be maintained without holding the forceps. This leaves the hands free for image intensifier control of compression gap closure and for inserting final fixation screws. 8 Synthes Variable Angle LCP 1 st MTP Fusion Plates 2.4 / 2.7 Technique Guide

11 Screw Insertion Techniques The plate holes of the Variable Angle LCP Technology 2.4 / 2.7 accept 2.4 mm and 2.7 mm Variable Angle (VA) Locking Screws. Screws can be inserted using two different techniques: Variable angle technique Pre-defined nominal angle technique Variable angle technique To drill variable angle holes at a +/-15 deviation from the nominal trajectory of the locking hole, insert the tip of the conical VA-LCP drill sleeve ( / ) and key into the cloverleaf design of the VA-LCP hole. VA-LCP drill sleeve, conical, for Drill Bits ( / ) Note: It is important not to angulate more than 15 from the central axis of the screw hole. Overangulation may result in difficulty while locking the screw and inadequate screw locking. Pre-defined nominal angle technique The fixed-angle VA-LCP drill sleeve ( / ) only allows the drill bit to follow the nominal trajectory of the locking hole. Use of funnel-shaped VA-LCP Drill Sleeve VA-LCP Drill Sleeve, coaxial, for Drill Bits ( / ) Synthes 9

12 Approach and Preparation 1 Approach Make a dorsomedial incision extending from the proximal inter phalangeal joint of the hallux to the middle of the first metatarsal. This incision should be medial to the extensor hallucis longus tendon. Isolate and retract the superficial nerve and vessel. Make a linear capsular incision to expose the first metatarsal head and proximal phalanx base. Dissect down to the joint. Bend the phalanx down to expose the joint. 2 Insert Kirschner wire Instrument Kirschner Wire 1.6 mm with double tip, length 150 mm, Stainless Steel Insert the 1.6 mm Kirschner wire into the base of the first metatarsal. Ensure the wire is centered in the canal. A chielectomy may be necessary to remove impinging bone and create a flat surface for the plate. 10 Synthes Variable Angle LCP 1 st MTP Fusion Plates 2.4 / 2.7 Technique Guide

Remove the Kirschner wire from the metatarsal. Insert a Kirschner wire into the center of the phalanx. Slide the appropriate distal reamer over the Kirschner wire and ream to remove cartilage from the joint. Important: When preparing the joint, it is possible to remove too much bone, which may result in shortening. Ream only enough to remove the cartilage and expose the joint surface for fusion. Remove the reamer and Kirschner wire. 12 Synthes Variable Angle LCP 1 st MTP Fusion Plates 2.4 / 2.7 Technique Guide

15 Implantation 1 Select and position plate Select the plate that allows for the desired level of correction. A sterile flat surface can be placed on the bottom of the foot to measure the desired amount of toe dorsiflexion. The plate may be contoured slightly to achieve the desired outcome. Place the plate on the joint surface, aligning the etched line on the plate with the joint to ensure proper plate position. 2 Contour plate Instrument Bending Pliers for VA Locking Plates The 1 st MTP fusion plates can be contoured to fit the specific anatomy and fixation options. The bending pliers are designed to protect the variable angle holes during contouring. The feature on the pliers lines up with the cloverleaf design in the plate. Two pliers are used to contour the plate. Important If possible, bend the plate between the VA holes. Do not deform the threaded part of the holes or over-bend the plates during bending as this may adversely affect insertion of VA locking screws. Do not repeatedly bend the plates back and forth as this may weaken the plate. Synthes 13

21 Use the 2.0 mm drill bit (2.7 mm VA screw) or the 1.8 mm drill bit (2.4 mm VA screw) to drill at the desired angle and to the desired depth. The cone of the drill sleeve allows the drill bit to be angled up to 15 around the central axis of the locking hole. Important: To ensure that the drill guide is locked correctly, do not angle the drill bit in excess of +/-15 from the nominal trajectory of the hole. To achieve the desired angle, verify the drill bit angle and depth under image intensification. If incorrect, drill at a different angle and verify again under image intensification. Use the according depth gauge to measure the correct screw length. Synthes 19
