A patent has been issued for a method of repairing plantar plate tears through graft augmentation. The plantar plate is a ligament that supports the arch of the foot, and tears in this ligament can cause pain and discomfort. The patented method involves using a plantar plate graft augmentation kit, which includes tools such as a drill guide, K-wires, a graft passer, and interference-type screws. The kit provides a fast, easy, and effective way to repair plantar plate tears by augmenting the damaged area with a soft tissue graft. [Extracted from the article] |
