A member asked:
I am type 1 diabetic, i have had 2 foot reconstructions but its still broke, now i am having bone anchorage, what is this?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Anchorage plate: The anchorage plate is just a name brand for a locking plate used for different foot procedures. Do you know if your foot is being fused or just an osteotomy? Usually the anchoragd plate is used for fusion of joints but there are many different plates and screws that do the same thing. The brand owner is stryker/mmi corp. Hope that helped!
