Abstract
TPLO plate includes a body having a proximal portion positioned over a cut and repositioned proximal segment of a tibia during a procedure and a distal portion positioned over a distal segment of the tibia during the procedure and a first distal hole extending through a proximal end of the distal portion from the first surface to the second surface. The first hole is configured so that the body is rotatable about a fixation element seated therein in combination with a second distal hole extending through the distal portion distally of the first hole. The second hole includes a compression surface along a caudal side thereof, so that a head portion of a fixation element is slid therealong during insertion into the second hole and the distal end is moved caudally relative to the fixation element and the body is rotated about the fixation element in the first hole relative to the recess of the first hole, cranially compressing the proximal segment against the distal segment.
