Bunion Correction Surgery at Central Florida Foot & Ankle Institute

At Central Florida Foot & Ankle Institute (CFL FAI), Dr. Robert Hoover II, DPM, FACFAS, Dr. Carli Hoover, DPM, and Dr. Sean Griffin, DPM, specialize in the advanced Lapiplasty® 3D Bunion Correction™ procedure. This innovative surgery addresses the root cause of bunions by correcting the deformity in three dimensions, providing a stable and lasting solution.

How Lapiplasty® Works

The Lapiplasty® procedure involves four key steps:

  1. Correct: The Lapiplasty® Positioner realigns the metatarsal bone in all three planes, restoring natural anatomy before any cuts are made.

  2. Cut: Precision cuts are made with the metatarsal held in the corrected position, ensuring optimal alignment.

  3. Compress: The Lapiplasty® Compressor applies controlled compression to the joint surfaces, maintaining the three-plane correction.

  4. Fixate: Low-profile Biplanar™ Plating provides robust stability, allowing for a rapid return to weight-bearing activities.

Benefits of Lapiplasty®

  • Rapid Recovery: Patients can typically bear weight in a boot within two weeks.

  • Low Recurrence Rates: The procedure has demonstrated high success rates in maintaining 3D correction.

  • Pain Reduction: Significant pain reduction has been reported post-surgery.
