Procedure

The Arthrex Pilon Fusion System is an expansion to the Arthrex Ankle Fusion Plating System that adds to the Arthrex portfolio for the following procedures:
<ul>
 <li>Distal tibia fractures that require fracture reduction and primary ankle arthrodesis</li>
 <li>Primary ankle fusions that necessitate additional screw options or plate lengths</li>
 <li>Revision ankle arthrodesis for failed primary fusions, hindfoot nails, or total ankle replacement</li>
</ul>
 
Severe damage to the tibiotalar (TT) joint often results in posttraumatic arthritis, pain, stiffness, and nonunions that require secondary surgeries. The Pilon Fusion System provides another option to address these severe scenarios with primary TT arthrodesis of the articular surface to potentially avoid additional surgery and chronic pain.
 
Anterolateral and posterior approaches, depending on the fracture pattern and/or soft-tissue condition, allow for fracture management, lengthy bridging techniques, anatomic implants, and fracture-specific locking configurations.

The Arthrex Ankle Fusion Plating System provides a complete solution for ankle fusion with a comprehensive offering of contoured titanium plates for both tibiotalar (TT) and tibiotalocalcaneal (TTC) arthrodeses.
 
The ankle fusion set includes anterior and lateral TT fusion plates along with posterior and lateral TTC fusion plates that allow for a variety of screw options, including 4.5 mm and 5.5 mm cortical and cancellous screws. Specific instrumentation designed to prepare the fusion sites is included in one comprehensive system.

Ankle Fusion System

The DualCompression hindfoot fusion nail is intended to facilitate tibiotalocalcaneal arthrodesis to treat severe foot/ankle deformity, arthritis, instability, and skeletal defects. The superelastic nitinol inner core of the nail provides sustained compression across both joints when instrumentation is removed during bone resorption or joint settling.
