Intended Use

Wright's ORTHOLOC™ 3Di Ankle Plating System is intended for fixation of fractures, osteotomies, and non-unions of the distal tibia and fibula such as: Lateral Malleolar Fractures . Syndesmosis injuries . Medial Malleolar Fractures . Bi-Malleolar Fractures . Tri-Malleolar Fractures . Posterior Malleolar Fractures . Distal Anterior Tibia Fractures . Vertical Shear Fractures of the Medial Malleolous t Pilon Fractures t Distal Tibia Shaft Fractures . Distal Fibula Shaft Fractures t Distal Tibia Periarticular Fractures . Medial Malleolar Avulsion Fractures . Lateral Malleolar Avusion Fractures . The ORTHOLOCTM 3Di locking screws are intended for use with Wright's ORTHOLOCTM 3Di Plating Systems of the same base material. ORTHOLOC™ Bone Screws are indicated for use in bone reconstruction, osteotomy, arthrodesis, joint fusion, fracture repair, and fracture fixation, appropriate for the size of the device. Wright's washers are intended to prevent a screw head from breaking through the cortex of the bone by distributing the forces/load over a large area when used for fracture fixation of bone fragments.

Device Story

The ORTHOLOC™ 3Di Ankle Plating System consists of titanium alloy plates and locking screws designed for orthopedic fixation of the distal tibia and fibula. Plates feature poly-axial locking screw holes, k-wire holes, and compression/syndesmosis slots. The system is used by orthopedic surgeons in a clinical or surgical setting to stabilize bone fragments during fracture repair, osteotomy, or arthrodesis. The device provides mechanical stability to bone segments, facilitating healing. The system is a modification of existing predicate plating systems, featuring reduced material and updated screw thread pitch/form and driver types to improve clinical performance and accommodate surgeon feedback.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data. Substantial equivalence is supported by bench testing only, including worst-case plate analysis, torque to failure, polyaxial performance, torsional, and pull-out/pull-through testing.

Technological Characteristics

Titanium alloy bone plates and screws. Features poly-axial locking screw holes, k-wire holes, and compression/syndesmosis slots. Screws available in 2.7mm and 3.5mm (locking) and 3.5mm and 4.0mm (bone screws) diameters. Mechanical fixation via screw-plate locking mechanism. Non-sterile or sterile (implied by standard orthopedic practice).

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients requiring fixation of fractures, osteotomies, and non-unions of the distal tibia and fibula, including malleolar, pilon, and shaft fractures, as well as syndesmosis injuries. Screws and washers are indicated for bone reconstruction, arthrodesis, joint fusion, and fracture repair.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

Single/multiple component metallic bone fixation appliances and accessories are devices intended to be implanted consisting of one or more metallic components and their metallic fasteners. The devices contain a plate, a nail/plate combination, or a blade/plate combination that are made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum, stainless steel, and titanium, that are intended to be held in position with fasteners, such as screws and nails, or bolts, nuts, and washers. These devices are used for fixation of fractures of the proximal or distal end of long bones, such as intracapsular, intertrochanteric, intercervical, supracondylar, or condylar fractures of the femur; for fusion of a joint; or for surgical procedures that involve cutting a bone. The devices may be implanted or attached through the skin so that a pulling force (traction) may be applied to the skeletal system.

## A.4. Device Description

The ORTHOLOC™ 3Di Ankle Plating System contains 45 plates belonging to 1 of 2 general categories-distal tibia and fibula-based on the contouring of each plate. All plates feature poly-axial locking screw holes. Some plates have k-wire holes, compression slots, or syndesmosis slots. The plates are made from titanium alloy and accept 2.7mm and 3.5mm ORTHOLOC™ 3Di locking screws, 3.5mm and 4.0mm ORTHOLOC™ Bone Screws, and 4.0mm Wright™ Compression Screws (cleared under K082320, now branded DART-FIRE®). Washers are also available for use with the ORTHOLOC™ Bone Screws.

The design features of the ORTHOLOC™ 3Di Ankle Plating System and ORTHOLOC™ Bone Screws are substantially equivalent to the design features of the predicate ORTHOLOC™ APS and Wright™ Compression Screws.

#### A.6. Technological Characteristics Comparison

The ORTHOLOCTM 3Di Ankle Plating System and the legally marketed predicate ORTHOLOC™ APS have similar indications, utilize similar instrumentation, and are identical in material, anatomical design and selection. The subject ORTHOLOC™ 3Di Ankle Plates have been modified to reduce the excess material and accommodate surgeon feedback. ORTHOLOCTM bone screws are identical in indications for use, diameter, and material and are included in the size range of the legally marketed predicate. Wright™ Compression Screws. The subject screws differ in thread pitch and form, and driver type.

### B.1. Substantial Equivalence - Non-Clinical Evidence

{2}------------------------------------------------

Substantial equivalence is shown through worst-case plate analysis torque to failure, polyaxial performance, torisional, and pull out/pull through testing. The results of the test show that the subject ORTHOLOC™ 3Di Ankle Plating System and ORTHOLOC™ Bone Screws can be expected to perform at least as well as the legally marketed predicate ORTHOLOCTM APS and Wright Compression Screws.

The safety and effectiveness of the subject ORTHOLOC™ 3Di Ankle Plating System and ORTHOLOC™ Bone Screws is adequately supported by the substantial equivalence information, materials information, and comparison of design characteristics provided within the Premarket Notification.

## B.2. Substantial Equivalence - Clinical Evidence

N/A

# B.3. Substantial Equivalence - Conclusions

Substantial equivalence is shown through worst-case plate analysis and torque to failure, polyaxial performance, torisional, and pull out/pull through testing. The subject plates are identical to the predicate plates in material, anatomical design and selection, and thickness materials, and similar in indications, and instrumentation utilized. The subject plates have been modified to accept the modified predicate screws with a smaller distal pitch. The subject screws are identical in indication for use, diameter, size range and material to the predicate, and differ in thread pitch and form and driver type. No new types of safety and effectiveness questions can be expected. From the evidence given in the Premarket Notification, the subject devices can be expected to perform at least as well as the predicate devices.
