| Calcanea® - Surgical
Technique |
|
- At this point, the Calcanea® plate is used
- The size that best fits the calcaneal anatomy
is chosen: size small, medium or large
- Each plate is anatomical and suitable for either
left or right side
|
 |
- The Calcanea® plate is then positioned
at the appropriate location on the lateral calcaneal
wall
- If necessary the Calcanea® plate can be
moulded and contoured to the lateral aspect of
the anterior process, the posterior facet and
to the tuberosity
- The upper part of the posterior and anterior
borders can sometimes be cut off, or be bent for
a dorso-plantar screw fixation
- Plate benders (2 x 129139ND) should be used
for this bending procedure
