The EickLoxx SPP® (Swiss Patella Plate®) system is a new technique for the treatment of medial patellar dislocation in dogs and cats.
In the surgical treatment of patellar dislocation in small animals, a tension belt is usually inserted to fix the osteotomized tibial tuberosity. The tips of the KIRSCHNER wires can irritate the skin, or the implants might migrate, requiring them to be removed. The new EickLoxx SPP® impact plate is intended to avoid revision surgeries.
The EickLoxx SPP® system consists of 8 different plate sizes, 4 locking plates, 2 washers and multiaxial locking screws with Ø 1.7 and 2.3 mm, which, depending on the bone size, can also be screwed into the plate in a combination. This enables a good anatomical fit and stable fixation.
The technology
Due to the stable fixation of the SPP® using two multidirectional locking screws, and the use of of implants on the medial side, the rate of revision operations is greatly reduced. The impact plate reliably prevents the medial displacement of the tibial tuberosity.
Properties
- Surgical correction of the patellar dislocation using an impact plate
- Stable fixation enables faster postoperative recovery
- Biocompatible titanium (no removal of the plate necessary)
