Techniques for Repair With InternalBrace™ Augmentation for Plantar Plate Injuries

At the Controversies in Foot and Ankle Surgery Course, Kaitlin Neary, MD (Boise, ID), explains why and how to efficiently repair plantar plate injuries.

The InternalBrace surgical technique is intended only to augment the primary repair/reconstruction by expanding the area of tissue approximation during the healing period and is not intended as a replacement for the native ligament. The InternalBrace technique is for use during soft tissue-to-bone fixation procedures and is not cleared for bone-to-bone fixation.
