Equinus Contracture
Equinus contracture is a common condition that can lead to a cascade of pathologies if left untreated. Patients who do not respond to conservative treatment may require surgical correction. Arthrex has developed a state of the art, minimally invasive Endoscopic Kit for Endoscopic Gastroc Recession to safely and effectively restore a normal level of dorsiflexion with minimal morbidity and immediate weightbearing postoperatively.1
