Restore. Reshape. Rebuild.
Flatfoot deformity encompasses a host of soft tissue abnormalities at the posteromedial and plantar foot, and is characterized by a collapse of the medial longitudinal arch.1,2 During the course of the disease, surgical procedures, such as medial cuneiform opening wedge osteotomy, calcaneal lateral column lengthening osteotomy, or a calcaneal medial/lateral sliding osteotomy, may become necessary.
The APTUS Mid- and Hindfoot System 2.8/3.5 offers surgeons the tools to reshape misalignments, restore the anatomy, and rebuild a functional and stable foot to find the best solution for their patients. A wide range of implants and sizes enables to address patients requirements.
