Pecaplasty® targeting guide
The Pecaplasty® System delivers reproducible outcomes in percutaneous bunion correction. The instrument helps navigate the challenges of the procedure by controlling translation and providing accurate placement of the K-wires. PECA® Implants are used to fasten and stabilize the correction during the healing process.

- Aiming point is fixed, always 14 mm (1) from the paddle.
