“MIS surgery addresses all aspects of the bunion deformity in all planes, resulting in a truly 3-dimensional correction.”
How has the Arthrex Minimally Invasive Bunionectomy changed your practice?
“With over 130 different bunion procedures described in the literature, it is apparent that, until recently, there was no one type of bunion surgery that satisfied all patients and was satisfactory to all surgeons. Since I began performing MIS surgery, over 95% of my bunion surgery has been performed via MIS techniques with overall excellent results. This has resulted in a much more predictable and durable outcome.”
“I believe this is the first inning in MIS. The future will be MIS for most things in foot and ankle and it will be important for foot and ankle surgeons to learn these techniques to better treat their patients. I remain intrigued by MIS and am teaching myself, fellows, and residents techniques in MIS for foot and ankle procedures. MIS has the potential to greatly reduce postoperative complications.”
“The Arthrex MIS Bunionectomy has changed my practice in so many ways. Previously, I used many different techniques to try and correct bunions that just didn’t work very well. Now I have a single, go-to procedure for all my bunions that always works well.”
“The Arthrex Bunionectomy has completely revolutionized my practice, with decreased operating room time,1 minimal recovery for patients,2,3 and improved cosmetic incisions.2 Patients have never been happier and, to be completely transparent, I have never been happier. I am able to do more cases on surgery days and see more patients in the office because their recovery is so quick. I will never go back to open procedures for bunion surgery.”
“Taking a minimally invasive (MIS) approach to bunion correction has been the most impactful change I have ever made to my practice. Postoperatively, there is significantly less swelling,4 pain,2,3 stiffness,1 and incision problems3 compared to an open approach. This has increased patient satisfaction, accelerated recovery, and has grown my bunion practice considerably as a result.”
