A hollow calcaneus osteotomy plate is a specialized orthopedic implant used in foot surgery, particularly for procedures like calcaneal osteotomies, which involve cutting and realigning the heel bone (calcaneus). These plates offer several features designed to enhance surgical outcomes and patient recovery. Key features include:
The plate typically has a hollow or fenestrated design, allowing bone graft material to be placed inside or around the plate. This promotes bone healing and integration.
The plate is pre-contoured to match the anatomy of the calcaneus, reducing the need for intraoperative bending and ensuring a better fit to the bone.
The plate has a low-profile design to minimize irritation to the surrounding soft tissues and reduce the risk of complications like hardware prominence.
The plate offers multiple screw holes for fixation, which allows for secure attachment to the bone and provides stability to the osteotomy site.
It can accommodate both locking and non-locking screws, providing versatility in fixation and enabling surgeons to adjust according to the patient's needs.
Some plates are made from materials that are radiolucent (e.g., PEEK or carbon fiber), allowing for clear imaging during follow-up without interference from the plate.
The plate is typically made from biocompatible materials such as titanium or stainless steel, which are strong, durable, and resistant to corrosion.
Some designs feature slots or guides to assist surgeons in performing precise cuts and achieving the desired correction angle during the osteotomy.
These features help in achieving stable fixation, promoting bone healing, and minimizing complications, which are crucial for successful outcomes in calcaneal osteotomy procedures.
A hollow calcaneus osteotomy plate is indicated for various conditions and surgical procedures involving the calcaneus (heel bone). Here are some common indications:
Heel Valgus/Varus Deformities: When the heel bone is misaligned, causing abnormal foot posture or gait.
Flatfoot (Pes Planus) or High Arched Foot (Pes Cavus): To correct structural deformities that affect foot function.
Post-Traumatic Deformities: To address deformities resulting from previous fractures or injuries to the calcaneus.
Post-Surgical Corrections: For realigning the heel bone after prior surgeries that did not achieve the desired outcome.
Chronic Tendonitis or Tendon Ruptures: When surgery is needed to correct alignment issues related to chronic Achilles tendon problems.
Calcaneal Osteotomy: For realigning the heel bone to improve foot function or to correct alignment issues.
Functional Problems: To address issues with walking or running caused by misalignment of the calcaneus.
Foot Deformities Present from Birth: To correct congenital abnormalities of the heel bone.
Arthritis in the Calcaneus: When deformities or misalignments due to arthritis need surgical correction.
Bone Graft Support: The hollow design allows for the incorporation of bone graft material, which can be used to enhance bone healing in cases where bone regeneration is necessary.
The choice to use a hollow calcaneus osteotomy plate depends on the specific clinical scenario and the surgeon’s assessment of the patient’s needs and anatomy.

A Hollow Metatarsal Osteotomy Plate is an orthopedic implant used to stabilize and support the metatarsal bones after an osteotomy—a surgical procedure where a bone is cut to correct deformities or realign the bone structure. The "hollow" design typically refers to a central gap or reduced material in the plate, which may be used to minimize weight, encourage bone healing, or accommodate specific surgical techniques.
The plate is commonly used in the treatment of:
Hallux Valgus (Bunion) Deformity: To realign the first metatarsal bone.
Metatarsalgia: To relieve pain under the ball of the foot by altering the length or position of a metatarsal bone.
Foot Deformities: Various other foot deformities that require realignment or repositioning of the metatarsal bones.
Fractures: Stabilization of metatarsal fractures, particularly when a precise alignment is necessary.
Reduced Weight: The hollow design typically reduces the overall weight of the plate, which can make it more comfortable for the patient.
Bone Healing: The central gap or reduced material may allow for better visualization of bone healing and provide space for bone grafts or bone growth, promoting natural bone healing.
Flexible Design: The hollow or fenestrated areas may provide more flexibility in the plate, accommodating various anatomical variations or surgical requirements.
The plate is typically made from biocompatible materials such as:
Titanium: Known for its strength, lightness, and biocompatibility.
Stainless Steel: Also commonly used due to its strength and resistance to corrosion.
During surgery, the metatarsal bone is cut (osteotomy) to correct its alignment or length. The plate is then attached to the bone using screws to hold the bone segments in place while they heal. The hollow design allows for potential bone grafting or natural bone regrowth through the plate, which can enhance healing.
Potential risks include:
Infection: Risk of infection at the surgical site.
Nonunion: Failure of the bone segments to heal properly, leading to the need for additional surgery.
Hardware Irritation: The plate or screws could cause irritation to surrounding tissues, particularly if the plate is not well-seated or if the patient has less soft tissue coverage.
Screw Loosening: Screws may loosen over time, particularly if there is significant movement or stress on the plate.
The Hollow Metatarsal Osteotomy Plate is usually intended to remain in place permanently. However, if it causes discomfort or if the bone has fully healed and no longer requires support, the plate can be removed in a subsequent surgery.
Recovery time varies depending on the specific procedure, but generally, patients may need to avoid weight-bearing activities for several weeks to months after surgery. Full recovery, including return to normal activities, can take several months. Physical therapy is often recommended to aid in the recovery process.
The plate may set off metal detectors at airports or security checkpoints. However, most modern implants, including those made of titanium, are MRI-compatible, meaning they will not interfere with MRI scans. It is important to inform medical personnel about the presence of any implants before imaging procedures.
Due to its low-profile design, the plate is usually not noticeable under the skin. However, in some patients, particularly those with thin or less soft tissue coverage, the plate may be more palpable.
Alternatives may include:
Non-Surgical Treatments: Such as orthotics, physical therapy, or footwear modifications, depending on the condition.
Other Surgical Options: Including different types of plates, screws, or pins, or alternative osteotomy techniques that do not require a plate.
The hollow or fenestrated design may enhance bone healing by allowing for bone graft placement or by encouraging natural bone growth through the plate. This can lead to more robust and faster healing in some cases.
