Precision Ankle Trauma Fixation Engineered for Global Healthcare Supply Chains.
OIC delivers FDA-cleared and ISO 13485-certified ankle fixation solutions engineered to fulfill demanding surgical requirements while eliminating unjustifiable medical device markups. Designed in collaboration with leading orthopaedic trauma surgeons, our portfolio provides uncompromising anatomical stability, intuitive instrumentation, and a 50–60% reduction in implant procurement costs for hospitals, surgical centers, and international distributors worldwide.
Advanced Dynamic Stabilization for Syndesmotic Disruptions
Post-operative pain and persistent joint stiffness frequently result from rigid screw transfixation of the ankle syndesmosis. The OIC FLEX-FIX™ System solves two key surgical challenges: achieving true dynamic joint mechanics during physiological healing while reducing hospital expenditure.
Engineered with ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) suture tape and low-profile Titanium alloy buttons, FLEX-FIX™ maintains anatomical reduction while allowing natural micro-motion. This significantly reduces the risk of hardware breakage and eliminates routine secondary hardware removal surgeries.
Key System Features & Engineering Specifications
- Biocompatible Construction: High-strength Ti6Al4V ELI titanium alloy metallic buttons paired with 1.5mm UHMWPE suture tape.
- Low-Profile Design: Minimized implant prominence to reduce soft-tissue irritation and patient discomfort.
- Versatile Application: Designed for seamless integration with or without distal fibula bone plating constructs.
- Simplified Procedure: Controlled, predictable deployment mechanism with no requirement for a medial counter-incision.
- Single-Use Sterile Packaging: Delivered as a complete, pre-sterilized kit ensuring maximum operating room efficiency and contamination prevention.

Complete Anatomical Fracture Fixation System
Complex ankle fractures demand versatile, anatomical plating solutions. The ANKx Ankle Fixation System integrates specialized anatomical distal fibula plates, hook plates, ultra-thin 1/3 tubular plates, and precision cannulated screws into a single streamlined tray.
Compatible with standard Small Fragment instrumentation, ANKx eliminates steep learning curves for surgical teams. By optimizing inventory configuration and tray layout, healthcare institutions benefit from reduced sterilization overhead and superior intraoperative adaptability.
System Portfolio Specifications
- Specialized Malleolar Hook Plates: Engineered specifically for compression across transverse fibular fractures, as well as difficult lateral and medial malleolar avulsions.
- Ultra-Low Profile 1/3 Tubular Plates: Thin-profile construction with locking and non-locking hole options to prevent soft-tissue impingement.
- Anatomical Distal Fibula Plates: Pre-contoured design matching natural distal fibular anatomy for optimal fracture reduction and contouring.
- Comprehensive Screw Portfolio: Includes Ø4.0mm cancellous screws (35mm–50mm) and Ø4.0mm cannulated screws in partially and fully threaded configurations.
- Tray Standardization: Fully compatible with OIC Small Fragment instrumentation for seamless surgical workflow integration.
