Arthrex MIS Bunionectomy Set - for Hallux Valgus Correction
Admin
One more way to skin the cat…
“There are more than 90 different surgeries for Hallux valgus” – Foot and ankle 101
When there are many ways to achieve a goal, a pessimist says none are perfect. But optimists like us, believe that every new procedure is evolution of previous ideologies. Modern Orthopod’s ideology is minimally invasive and so, we have the next logical step.
Arthrex MIS Bunionectomy set has a trick up its sleeve which is its dual function trajectory system. It helps to place a planned osteotomy, shift the distal fragment, maintain the achieved the correction and also guide the screws in a percutaneous way. The Bevelled screws gives a low-profile fixation.
This RCT shows almost 90% of patients are happy after a percutaneous osteotomy with better AOFAS scores. Cadaveric analysis suggests that a MIS osteotomy at an average distance of 2.2 cm proximal to the MTP is a “sweet spot” for avoiding complications.
After all who doesn’t like a MIS procedure. Do check out the video here.
