The procedure was performed by David Pizzano, MD, and Stephen Guiliana, MD, of Roxbury Foot and Ankle Center.

Traditionally, 2D osteotomy surgery cuts and shifts the bone during bunion surgery. Lapiplasty is  designed to correct all three planes of the bunion and secure unstable joints, addressing the root cause of the bunion.

 

At the Becker’s 32nd Annual Meeting: The Business and Operations of ASCs, taking place October 29-31 in Chicago, ASC leaders, surgeons and healthcare executives will explore strategies to drive growth, enhance operational performance, navigate reimbursement challenges and prepare for the future of ambulatory surgery.
