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

* Pilon Fractures

* Distal Tibia Shaft Fractures

* Distal Fibula Shaft Fractures

* Distal Tibia Periarticular Fractures
