MicroAire SmartRelease Plantar Fascia

Introducing the MicroAire SmartRelease System, a revolutionary solution for foot pain relief. The plantar fascia is a crucial band of tissue that connects the heel bone to the base of the toes, supporting the arch of the foot and absorbing shock when walking. However, tension and stress on the fascia can cause small tears, leading to inflammation and discomfort (plantar fasciitis). Plantar fascia release surgery involves cutting part of the plantar fascia ligament to release tension and relieve inflammation. The MicroAire SmartRelease System is designed for transecting the transverse carpal ligament and fascia of the cubital tunnel, recession of the plantar fascia, and gastrocnemius aponeurosis. It comprises an endoscope and a handpiece that holds an elongated, disposable blade assembly, which connects to any standard video camera and light source. The surgeon introduces the blade assembly into the carpal tunnel through a limited incision in the wrist flexor crease, providing a minimally invasive and effective solution for foot pain relief.
