Problem
Traditional bunion correction surgery often fails to address the root cause of the deformity, leading to recurrence and continued pain for patients. Existing techniques may not fully correct the bunion in all three anatomical planes, resulting in suboptimal outcomes and limitations in weight-bearing activities.
Solution
Treace Medical Concepts offers the Lapiplasty® system, a 3D bunion correction procedure designed to address the instability at the root of the bunion in all three dimensions. The Lapiplasty® procedure utilizes advanced, patented instrumentation and surgical techniques to reproducibly correct the deformity, stabilize the joint, and allow for faster return to weight-bearing. The company also provides the Adductoplasty® system for midfoot realignment, SpeedPlate™ implants for rapid compression fixation, and various plating systems designed for the tarsometatarsal joint. Treace's minimally invasive systems, such as Micro-Lapiplasty®, Mini-Adductoplasty™, Nanoplasty™, and Percuplasty™, aim to reduce incision sizes and improve patient outcomes.
Target Audience
The primary audience includes foot and ankle surgeons seeking reproducible and effective solutions for 3D bunion correction and related foot deformities.
