The Arthrex Pilon Fusion System is an expansion to the Arthrex Ankle Fusion Plating System that adds to the Arthrex portfolio for the following procedures:
<ul>
 <li>Distal tibia fractures that require fracture reduction and primary ankle arthrodesis</li>
 <li>Primary ankle fusions that necessitate additional screw options or plate lengths</li>
 <li>Revision ankle arthrodesis for failed primary fusions, hindfoot nails, or total ankle replacement</li>
</ul>
Severe damage to the tibiotalar (TT) joint often results in posttraumatic arthritis, pain, stiffness, and non-unions that require secondary surgeries. The Pilon Fusion System provides another option to address these severe scenarios with primary TT arthrodesis of the articular surface to potentially avoid additional surgery and chronic pain.
Anterolateral and posterior approaches, depending on the fracture pattern and/or soft-tissue condition, allow for fracture management, lengthy bridging techniques, anatomic implants, and fracture-specific locking configurations.

Arthrex offers a wide variety of solutions in our ankle fracture portfolio, including titanium plating options. Plate offerings include locking third tubular plates, 3.5 mm reconstruction plates, and the locking distal fibular plate. Each plate is designed for use with the Syndesmosis TightRope® XP implant and includes a compression hole in the proximal shaft of the plate. The distal fibular plate also includes 3.0 mm variable-angle locking screws distally and suture eyelets for the addition of the AITFL InternalBrace™ ligament augmentation procedure.
 
The InternalBrace surgical technique is intended only to augment the primary repair/reconstruction by expanding the area of tissue approximation during the healing period and is not intended as a replacement for the native ligament. The InternalBrace technique is for use during soft tissue-to-bone fixation procedures and is not cleared for bone-to-bone fixation.&nbsp;
