SOMA Designed SOMA is Stryker’s proprietary population-based orthopaedic design and development system that applies actual data from CT images of bones from people around the world. The result is an implant designed for optimized fit across a range of patients.

Engineered to reduce OR-time1 Every minute counts in the OR. Bending a plate that doesn’t fit correctly can be a frustrating, time consuming process. A well-fitting implant can save precious minutes in surgery.

Plate options:• Anterior TT Plate, Left

Why titanium?• May allow for a less rigid

construct, potentially resulting in increased callus formation and secondary healing*,2

• May allow for increased CT imaging clarity3

• Offers well-characterized biocompatibility4,5
