14 results about "Fifth metatarsal bone" patented technology

The fifth metatarsal bone is a long bone in the foot, and is palpable along the distal outer edges of the feet. It is the second smallest of the five metatarsal bones. As with the four other metatarsal bones it can be divided into three parts; a base, body and head. The base is the part closest to the ankle and the head is closest to the toes. The narrowed part in the middle is referred to as the body (or shaft) of the bone. The bone is somewhat flat giving it two surfaces; the plantar (towards the sole of the foot) and the dorsal side (the area facing upwards while standing). These surfaces are rough for the attachment of ligaments. The bone is curved longitudinally, so as to be concave below, slightly convex above.

Auxiliary or integrated inner sole structure for footwear

ActiveUS12446654B2SolesInsolesFifth metatarsal bonePhysical medicine and rehabilitation
An inner sole structure for being mounted inside footwear for engagement by the foot comprises a middle sole part covered by a top part. The middle sole part defines has a thickness providing for supporting the foot and defines a longitudinal channel devoid of any material therein and defining an opening covered by the top sole part. When the inner sole structure is inside the footwear and engaged by the foot, the longitudinal channel is positioned under the foot of the wearer and is aligned with a longitudinal portion of the foot corresponding to a plantar fascia position of the foot to avoid tension against this foot portion. The inner sole structure comprises a support element for being mounted to an inner sole part of the footwear to be engaged by the foot. The support member is positioned to be engaged by a region of the foot corresponding to a position extending between at least near a fifth metatarsal rear end position of the foot to a heel bone position of the foot for providing stability to the foot for controlled supination.

System and method for a bunionectomy via bone cutting and fixation of a metatarsal in the foot

PendingUS20260069316A1Surgical sawsFastenersFifth metatarsal boneFirst metatarsal
A system and method for a ROSE-Reverdin / DARE osteotomy obviates severe deformities having a high intermetatarsal angle and which require closure via osteotomy (bone cut) of the first and / or fifth metatarsal in the midshaft or proximal aspect of the bone. The ROSE osteotomy is utilized to achieve this correction and is performed without need for fusion of the first metatarsal cuneiform joint. The ROSE osteotomy achieves correction of the intermetatarsal angle via rotation of the first and / or fifth metatarsal about a proximal based axis point. The Reverdin / DARE osteotomy is required to correct a deviated articular cartilage deformity at the head of the first metatarsal and / or additional slight correction of the IM angle. The Reverdin / DARE osteotomy achieves correction by wedging of the cut to realign the cartilage and translation of the head of the first metatarsal for further IM correction. A unique jig is used to achieve this cut and fixation.
