This is a surgical technique where the bone and soft tissue corrections are performed through small incisions. This technique has perceived advantages over open surgery from its smaller incisions, safer, faster healing time, minimal scaring, less swelling and discomfort.
At Feet 'N Beyond, we offer minimally invasive procedures in our state of the art surgical suite. Minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS) is useful in most of foot and ankle deformities. This technique is only performed by specifically trained physician in MIS with a new range of surgical tools that require technical skills in order to master the different surgical techniques.
Minimally invasive surgical techniques are mostly used for the following conditions:
- BUNIONS
- FLEXIBLE FLAT FEET
- HAMMERTOES
- HEEL SPURS OR HAGLUND'S DEFORMITY
- NEUROMA
- STIFF TOES DUE TO ARTHRITIS JOINT
- WOUNDS ON FEET OR TOES
- and many more...
Minimally invasive surgery is not for everyone. There are certain deformities that need a different surgical approach to correct the concerned area. Feel free to contact our office for a consultation with Dr. Helene Nguyen to discuss this in further detail.
