Four screw fixation of the BOW & ARROW Evans Plate helps to prevent subluxation of the calcaneocuboid joint with dorsal displacement of the distal calcaneal fragment.
The tapered “BOW” at the back of the plate helps to evenly distribute vertical pressure along the osteotomy due to the anatomically matched taper, with the point decreasing risk of tearing or attenuation of the lateral aspect of the long plantar ligament.
