The ANTHEM Ankle Fracture System is an extensive range of 7 unique plating options for treatment of virtually any ankle fracture. Over 25% thinner than the market leaders plate, ANTHEMs low profile ankle fracture plates are designed to minimize soft tissue irritation from implant prominence. Anatomically contoured plates, extensive screw options and instruments specifically designed for ankle anatomy are rolled into one efficient and comprehensive system for treating ankle fractures.
The ANTHEM Proximal Humerus Fracture System is designed to treat a wide variety of shoulder fractures and streamline procedural flow. The unique polyaxial screw technology allows for more accurate targeting of dense calcar bone to enhance fixation, independent of plate position. Large suture holes simplify suture attachment for soft tissue or rotator cuff repair. This comprehensive stand-alone system includes small fragment instruments and innovative retractors to help streamline the surgical procedure, aid in visibility of the fracture site, and optimize surgical time.

The clavicle hook plate may be used for dislocations of the acromioclavicular joint.
