The Baby Gorilla® Mini Plating System is a comprehensive foot and ankle specific plating system that includes 65 unique plating options. Instrumentation specific to foot and ankle surgeons is provided including bending bars and pliers, angled small and large curettes, varying widths of straight and curved osteotomes and distraction and compression tools. Baby Gorilla® Mini Plating System provides locking and non-locking 2.0 and 2.5 mm screws. The locking screws are designed to allow for up to 15° off-axis locking placement. Each screw hole accommodates a non-locking or locking 2.0 or 2.5 mm screw in sizes ranging from 8 to 50 mm. Compression slots are available on some of the plates and are compatible with non-locking screws.

The smaller 7 hole Y-Plates are offered with and without compression slots to ease 1st TMT procedures. Larger options, such as the Double Y 18 Hole Locking Plate, were designed to span the 4th and 5th metatarsal to the calcaneus.
