New Acumed Calcaneal Plates Online

In addition to their standard locking calcaneal plate, Acumed has put online thier new options for calcaneal fractures. You can visit their website directly to see the new plates as well as they can be seen individually at www.footandanklefixation.com under the calcaneal fracture page.

The new plating options, MINI-Calc (Minimally Invasive Calcaneal Plates), include three new plates based on calcaneal fracture patterns. Now inluded in the Acumed Calcaneal Plating System are the Acumed Anterior Process Calcaneal Plate, the Acumed Posterior Tuberosity Calcaneal Plate, and the Acumed Combo Calcaneal Plate. The new plates are designed not only for specific calcaneal fracture patterns but also to help facilitate a minimally invasive incision technique, thus helping to decrease wound and healing complications.
