Hello all. I thought I would ask some seasoned podiatric surgeons about implants. What procedures are out there that require implants for foot and ankle surgery? Are their any problems with patient healthcare that could yield potential improvement if the material was altered in these implants due to increased strength and better biocompatibility?
