The Stifle Distractors provide excellent joint distraction and meniscal evaluation and can be used in both open procedures and intra-articularly during arthroscopy without iatrogenic damage of the articular cartilage. The narrow intra-articular shaft diameter and the curvature of the instruments allow for easy insertion without interference.

The Arthrex Vet MPL plates follow the same anatomic engineering aspects of the Tibial Plateau Leveling Osteotomy (TPLO) Plating System with additional features to address medial patella luxation.&nbsp; The MPL plate includes a step to offset the fragment from the long bone of the tibia creating medial tibial plateau translation and a locking screw distal to the cut protecting the osteotomy.&nbsp; The plates are also designed to have proximal and distal locking holes to be less prominent under the skin. Proximal screw holes with specific trajectories within the proximal fragment. The distal end has limited bone contact and is designed with two k-wire holes to aid in positioning, the plates are also contoured to the bone, marked with a laser line for optimal positioning and step location. Additionally, the plates include a suture hole proximally for the application of an InternalBrace™ ligament augmentation, providing rotational stability. Finally, the distal end of the plate incorporates VetSuture holes on the cranial aspect to aid in soft tissue closure.&nbsp; The Arthrex Vet MPL Plating System has been created by veterinarians for veterinarians making a more reproducible procedure for happier and healthier patients.&nbsp; 
 
Size range includes 1.6 mm, 2.0 mm, 2.4 mm, 2.7 mm, 3.0 mm, 3.5 mm small, 3.5 mm standard, and 3.5 mm broad in left and right options.
 
Key Features and Benefits
<ul>
 <li>Step to offset the fragment including slight torsional rotation on smaller sizes</li>
 <li>Proximal screw trajectories avoid the joint</li>
 <li>Distal suture hole to aid in soft tissue closure</li>
 <li>Scalloped underside to distribute stress and minimize contact</li>
 <li>Proximal suture hole to support rotational stability</li>
 <li>Multiple K-wire holes allow surgeons to choose what is best for the patient</li>
 <li>Distal locking hole to protect the osteotomy site</li>
 <li>Laser line represents the location of the step</li>
 <li>Anatomic plate design with left and right options</li>
</ul>

Medial Patella Luxation (MPL) Plating System 

Kirschner wires, or K-wires, are used for temporary fixation during some orthopedic operations. After definitive fixation, they should be removed.
 
Use K-wires to:
<ul>
 <li>Help rotate the proximal bone fragment</li>
 <li>Hold the rotated proximal bone fragment in place during the TPLO procedure</li>
 <li>Secure jig pin to the bone</li>
 <li>Hold the TPLO plate during placement</li>
</ul>
