The patented Leith Plating system modernizes the way foot and ankle surgeries are done. Historically, surgeons have had to choose between a system that compresses to the bone or one that locks to prevent catastrophic failure due to screw back out. With the Leith system, surgeons no longer need to compromise. The Leith system addresses critical surgical priorities in a truly remarkable hybrid system: allowing micromotion to stimulate physiologic bone healing, but at the same time, prohibiting any screw backout and fixation failure.
