FULLY ANATOMICAL POLY-AXIAL LOCKING DISTAL TIBIA PLATE
DESIGNED FOR QUADRUPEDS
Technical Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a fully anatomical poly-axial locking distal tibia plate that is formed according to bone anatomy, fully anatomical, capable of being locked at different angles, and designed to be used in distal tibia fractures of quadrupeds which occur as one of many consequences of traumatic events including road accidents, falling from height, firearm injuries, etc.
The present invention particularly relates to a fully anatomical multi-directional locking plate system to be used in the field of medicine and designed in compliance with the bone structure in order to eliminate painful bone deformities as well as joint deformities in distal tibia region, stemming from traumatic arthritis, fractures and similar reasons in quadrupeds and particularly in feline and canine animal groups.
Prior Art
Trauma-related fracture cases are occasionally encountered in various bones of quadrupeds, and of feline and canine animal groups more generally. One of these fracture cases is distal tibia fractures.
Minimally Invasive Percutaneous Osteosynthesis technique, namely "M.I.P.O." technique which is employed in operations involving bridging-tibia plate applications in the state of the art performed for correcting the segmental tibia fractures
occurring in the distal tibia of quadrupeds, provides a mean surgery duration of 1 hour. Prolongation of surgery durations increases the infection occurrence risk. Furthermore, shorter surgery durations mean that the patient, who is affected by a severe trauma, will remain under the influence of anesthesia for shorter periods, and accordingly, the incidence rate for potential complications will be reduced.
Various prostheses are utilized in the state of the art in order to repair the damage originating from tumoral or traumatic, and degenerative cases. A fully anatomical plate that is in full compliance with the anatomical structure of tibia, and can increase the movement radius of the animal by proportionately distributing biomechanical and static loads on the bone by means of being locked to the bone at different angles, is not available in applications known in the state of the art .
Another method employed in distal tibia plate applications performed in the state of the art is the plate method. Although approximating the joint surface is desired in the aforementioned plate method, this particular method implies trying to grab the fractured distal fragment by a single screw, thereby preventing the distal fragment from remaining stable.
In the state of the art, another method employed in distal tibia plate applications is the cross-pinning method. Cross pinning method implies trying to fixate the ankle joint over the medial and lateral directions thereof towards the direction of the tibial shaft by utilizing two or more fine Kirschner pins, however, since points which are mandatorily designated as entry points, coincide with medial and lateral collateral ligaments on both surfaces, it is highly like to damage the fibular nerve line. The requirement of using fine and flexible
pins dictates performing a splinting process subsequent to fixation, and this process induces joint contracture. Additionally, pin surfaces that remain outside of the bone surface generate granulation tissues as said pin surfaces rub against peripheral tissues of the ankle joint. Formation of granulation tissues is a crucial factor that affects the joint mobility negatively.
Yet another method employed in distal tibia plate applications in the state of the art is the straight pinning method. Said straight pinning method involves cutting the joint capsule open and linearly inserting a pin to the tibial shaft on the surface of tarso-tibial joint. Straight pinning method causes discharging of the synovial fluid because of the fact that joint capsule is cut open in order to gain access to the pin insertion point. Furthermore, due to the fact that the pinning entry point is directly the joint attrition surface, it fails to absorb the tension factors herein, and accordingly, causes internal fractures to occur in the form of bone blocks. Additionally, it further results in impairment on the joint surface since the pinning entry point is created by puncturing the cartilage tissue. Meanwhile, since linear angulation cannot be achieved, an exit has to be performed to the dorsal skin region through tibia which locks the joint temporarily.
Nowadays, as it is disclosed above, various surgical methods are employed in distal tibia fractures. However, following through searches conducted in the state of the art, no system or patent application was determined pertaining to a system such as the inventive fully anatomical poly-axial locking distal tibia plate which improves patients' quality of life by ideally simulating (close to reality) motions of the tibia, and has a design that perfectly imitates the anatomy of the tibia in the treatment of tibia fractures of quadrupeds.
Consequently, a fully anatomical plate that is in full compliance with the anatomical structure of distal tibia, and can increase the movement radius of the animal by proportionately distributing biomechanical and static loads on the bone by means of being locked to the bone at different angles, is not available in applications known in the state of the art .

Another object of the present invention is to balance the load distribution by performing a fixing process with at least three screws at the distal tibia medial condyle region, thereby aligning the entirety of loads received in the direction of the knee joint and/or hip joint with cortex and performing a linear load transfer thereof through balanced cortex strength by means of the fully anatomical structure of the present invention.

The present invention is a newly designed "Fully Anatomical Poly-axial Locking Distal Tibia Plate" that is both fully anatomical, and may be locked to the dorsal of the distal tibia at different angles, and developed to be used in distal tibia fractures of quadrupeds occurring as one of many consequences of traumatic events including road accidents, falling from height, firearm injuries etc.
Tibia bone of quadrupeds along with feline and canine animal groups has an angulated structure. Therefore, joint portions that may adjust to all angular variabilities located on the distal tibia bone in a fully anatomical manner are required to be able to create a plate that is in full compliance with patients' anatomy.
Angular variabilities that are located on the distal tibia bone, and are significant for the inventive fully anatomical poly-axial locking distal tibia plate are as follows; bone tibial shaft surface area (1) which extends to proximal tibia border on the tibia as illustrated in Figure 1, bone distal tibia application area (2) which is the distal application
protrusion located at the bottom portion of the distal tibia bone as illustrated in Figure 1, bone distal tibia condylar translation angle (3) which is the angle between tibial shaft surface area (1) and the medial distal tibia condylar angle
(4) as illustrated in Figure 2, bone medial distal tibia condylar angle (4) which is the extension angle between the distal tibia line that starts from the ankle joint on the tibia, and distal tibia condylar translation angle (3) as illustrated in Figure 3, bone distal tibial application angle
(5) which is in the form of protrusion located at the bottom portion of the distal tibia bone as illustrated in Figure 4, bone condylar surface seat area (6) which is the peak-like area located at the bottom portion of the distal tibia bone as illustrated in Figure 5, wherein the angle subjacent to the bone condylar surface seat area (6) which is located at the bottom portion of the distal tibia bone is the bone tibial application medial seat area angle (7) illustrated in Figure 5.
Respective laboratory works were conducted on the distal tibia bones of aforementioned animal group, and accordingly minimum and maximum measurements pertaining to aforementioned angles and areas were determined. Concordantly, obtained results were optimized by means of both theoretical and practical applications, and used in the production of the inventive fully anatomical poly-axial locking distal tibia plate. Angle and area values that are important for the present invention are as follows; plate tibial shaft surface area (1A) with a length in a range between 18.7 - 25.3 mm, as illustrated in Figure 6, having measurements thereof corresponding to the bone tibial shaft surface area (1), plate distal tibial application area (2A) with a length in a range between 25.5 - 34.5 mm, as illustrated in Figure 6, having measurements thereof corresponding to the bone distal tibia application area (2),
plate distal tibia condylar translation angle (3A) with an angle in a range between 1.87°-2.5°, as illustrated in Figure 7, having measurements thereof corresponding to the bone distal tibia condylar translation angle (3), plate medial distal tibia condylar angle (4A) with an angle in a range between 3°-4°, as illustrated in Figure 7, having measurements thereof corresponding to the bone medial distal tibia condylar angle (4), plate distal tibial application angle (5A) with an angle in a range between 2°-2.8°, as illustrated in Figure 8, having measurements thereof corresponding to the bone distal tibial application angle (5), plate condylar surface seat angle ( 6A) with a length in a range between 13.6-18.4 mm, as illustrated in Figure 9, having measurements thereof corresponding to the bone condylar surface seat angle (6), and plate tibial application medial seat area angle (7A) with an angle in a range between 14.5°-19.5°, as illustrated in Figure 9, having measurements thereof corresponding to the bone tibial application medial seat area (7) . Furthermore, poly-axial locking holes (8) situated on the inventive fully anatomical poly-axial locking distal tibia plate as illustrated in Figure 6, are designed to have specific angular hole structures so as to ensure that the passageway of fixed poly-axial screws is compatible with the anteversion of the tibial neck. Poly-axial screws inserted at specific angles through poly-axial locking holes (8) pass through target points and ensure fracture fragment compression and/or fixation. Distal end and body holes of the present invention are supported with an internal cone- shaped circular mechanism that can ensure locking at different angles in cases where locking is desired to be performed by using locking cortical screw. The mechanism has an even- symmetric form together with the locking cone-shaped screw head and is locked by means of at least four grooves on each surface thereof. Thus, a fully anatomical contact surface is obtained by means of the present invention which is produced
in line with all of aforementioned mean measurement values, and it is locked by means of angulated screws which allow biomechanical load distribution on the axial basis instead of performing single plan screwing in bone fixation procedure. It is ensured that bone achieves a speedy recovery, that postoperative ailments stemming from plate implantation are prevented, and that motions of the tibia bone are simulated in the best way possible by means of distributing biomechanical and static forces evenly on the tibia bone of the patient.
As the present invention is anatomically shaped, the inventive fully anatomical poly-axial locking distal tibia plate fits perfectly to the bone in a fully compatible manner with anatomical curvatures on the distal tibia of the patient, thereby ensuring the anatomy of the patient rapidly returns to its original form.
