The Ortholoc 3Di Plating system utilizes the company’s Ortholoc 3Di polyaxial locking technology and facilitates surgeon to adjust the screw trajectory to meet the anatomic requirements of the patient, while providing a strong locking construct to promote bone fixation.

OrthoCarolina Foot and Ankle Institute orthopedic foot and ankle surgeon Carroll Jones said the new Ortholoc 3Di Reconstruction system provides surgeons a wide range of plate designs to address some of the most common procedures performed by foot and ankle surgeons including bunion reconstruction and fusions of the first toe.

"The system’s versatility allows surgeons to choose the best screw sizing and placement to create a robust implant construct, which is crucial for proper bone healing," Jones added.

Wright Medical president and chief executive officer Robert Palmisano said, "We expect to expand this system in the future to treat other areas of the foot, including complex midfoot and hindfoot procedures."
