Description
PRO-TOE® C2 Hammertoe Fixation System provides versatility addressing
2 common indications of the lesser toes - hammertoe correction and MTP joint
instability correction. The unique insertion method allows for compression
of the proximal interphalangeal joint (PIPJ) while maintaining the integrity
of the distal interphalangeal (DIP) joint. Utilizing differential thread pitches,
the PRO-TOE® C2 provides a compression ratio of 1.75mm:1mm per revolution.
Implant options include solid or cannulated dependent on diameter.
To accommodate all the lesser digits, and various patient anatomy and bone
quality, the system is offered in 4 diameters in either 13mm and/or 16mm
lengths. Implants are offered in stainless steel.
The instrumentation is streamlined and simple. The PRO-TOE® C2 tray is
provided non-sterile and includes implants and instruments. The tray has been
designed to promote ease-of-use by color-coding implants to drills. A reference
chart is also provided on the side of the tray.
Indications
The PRO-TOE® Hammertoe Fixation Systems are indicated for the fixation
of osteotomies and reconstruction of the lesser toes following correction
procedures for hammertoe, claw toe, and mallet toe.
Cannulated Implants in the PRO-TOE® Hammertoe Fixation Systems can be
used with K-wires for the delivery of implants or the temporary stabilization of
