FULCRUM FOR TARSAL-METATARSAL JOINT PROCEDURE

Abstract:

A technique for correcting a bone deformity, such as a bunion, may be performed using a fulcrum. In some examples, the fulcrum includes multiple members that are joined together at one end and spaced apart from each other at an opposite end. The fulcrum members can be manipulated to adjust the distance separating the fulcrum members from each other and, correspondingly, an amount of force separating the multiple members from each other. The force can be controlled to press against opposed bones, such as first and second metatarsals in an intermetatarsal space.
