The Calcanheal range has been specifically designed to address the challenges associated with osteosynthesis of calcaneal fractures.
Two different approaches are covered: one design for the treatment of fractures through an extended lateral approach (featuring a design that fully covers the lateral surface of the calcaneus), and a second design dedicated to reduced and minimally invasive approaches via the sinus tarsi.
An external ghost guide has been specifically developed for the Sinus Tarsi approach. It enables percutaneous manipulation of the plate without enlarging the incision, using a visible replica of the projected plate on the surface.
The implants from the Footmotion Plating System range are dedicated to arthrodesis, fracture and osteotomy fixation, and revision foot surgeries in adults.
Case study : Bilateral Calcaneal Fractures treated with Calcanheal Plates
Our philosophy:
a comprehensive approach to calcaneal fractures.
To address various anatomical and fracture types, four different sizes of Sinus Tarsi plates have been developed. This implant range features an external ghost-drilling guide to allow percutaneous screw placement using a minimally invasive approach.
The holes of all four plates are compatible with polyaxial locked and non-locked screws, available in two diameters: Ø2.8 mm and Ø3.5 mm.
This plate range, dedicated to the treatment of calcaneal fractures via an extensive lateral approach, is available in three sizes to best accommodate anatomical variations among patients. Their design and size also make them more suitable for complex fractures.
Key features of the Calcanheal range.
- A comprehensive range of implants for two surgical approaches: via the sinus tarsi or through extensive lateral approaches to the calcaneus
- An external ghost guide associated with the Sinus Tarsi plates for implant placement through a minimally invasive approach
