Calcaneal Osteotomy for Flatfoot

A calcaneal osteotomy is a common technique used to treat stage II flatfoot deformity. Arthrex's recently launched Minimally Invasive Surgery platform allows surgeons to perform this osteotomy through a tiny incision. Surgeons can then achieve fixation using the 7.0 mm Compression FT screws or the 6.5 Compression PT screws.

Alternatively, surgeons desiring a graduated shift can use the calcaneal step plate via a lateral approach.
