Astrid™ - a System for Surgery of the Forefoot
The Astrid System consists of original implants such as snap-off screws, self-tapping double-threaded compression screws, straight or slanting staples, anatomical minipin plates and one quarter tubular plates. The appropriate instrument set for each implant makes it easier to position them in place.
The Astrid System enables surgery of the metatarsals and great toe (Scarf and Chevron techniques for the M1, shortening, varization and derotation of P1) and of the other toes (Weil technique), as well as arthrodesis of the metatarsals and great toe prepared by spherical reaming.
