Static, Dynamic and Computer Hexapod Assisted Orthoplastic Surgery, An issue of Clinics in Podiatric Medicine and Surgery

In this issue of Clinics in Podiatric Medicine and Surgery, guest editors Drs. Guido A. LaPorta, George Vito, and Michael Subik bring their considerable expertise to the topic of Static, Dynamic, and Computer Hexapod Assisted Orthoplastic Surgery. Hexapod assisted orthoplastic surgery combines the precision of computer-aided design with the versatility of hexapod systems. This technology is revolutionizing the way complex deformities and fractures are managed, providing unparalleled accuracy and improved patient outcomes. In this issue top experts discuss the use of dynamic hexapod systems for real-time deformity correction, the innovative "Bent Wire" compression techniques for hindfoot and midfoot arthrodesis, and much more. Contains 17 relevant, practice-oriented topics including the biomechanics of stabile external fixation application; the evolution of hexapod external fixation and six-axis deformity correction; supramalleolar deformity: acute vs. gradual correction; segmental bone defects: management options with complimentary fixation; problems, obstacles, and complications of external fixation; and moreProvides in-depth clinical reviews on static, dynamic, and computer hexapod assisted orthoplastic surgery, offering actionable insights for clinical practicePresents the latest information on this timely, focused topic under the leadership of experienced editors in the field. Authors synthesize and distill the latest research and practice guidelines to create clinically significant, topic-based reviews
