For distal tibia: Attach the Inserter/Extractor Handle to the 90° Cannulated LC-Angle Blade Plate. Insert the plate over the guide wire. Use the Small Slotted Hammer for rotational control while using a mallet to advance the plate with light blows to the insertion handle. The blade will chisel through a portion of the near cortex and displace a small amount of cancellous bone. Remove the guide wire. Place an oblique lag screw through the most distal plate hole to engage the far cortex. Use 4.5 mm cortex and 6.5 mm cancellous bone screws to fix the plate to the bone and stabilize the fracture.
