Calcaneal Sliding Osteotomy (with Lateral Plate Fixation)

This foot and ankle procedure changes the alignment of the calcaneus, commonly called the "heel bone." The surgeon will cut this bone, adjust its position and stabilize it with an implant. This technique can be used to correct problems such as a flat foot or an abnormally high arch. It may also be recommended for patients who have experienced a fracture of the heel bone (calcaneus) that has healed in a misaligned position.
