Minimally Invasive Bunion & Hammer Toe Repair at AVORS Medical Group

Bunions and hammertoes can cause pain, deformity, and difficulty wearing shoes comfortably. At AVORS Medical Group in Lancaster, CA, Dr. Sarah Gostich, DPM, FACFAS, offers advanced minimally invasive surgical techniques using the Arthrex Minimally Invasive Burr System—a modern approach designed to correct deformities with less pain, faster recovery, and improved cosmetic results.


Why Choose Minimally Invasive Surgery?

Traditional bunion and hammertoe surgery often involves large incisions, extensive bone cutting, and prolonged recovery. Minimally invasive techniques use tiny incisions and specialized burrs to reshape bone and correct alignment with minimal disruption to surrounding tissue.


Benefits include:

  • Smaller incisions and less scarring
  • Reduced pain and swelling
  • Faster recovery and return to normal footwear
  • Improved cosmetic appearance


How the Procedure Works

Using the Arthrex Minimally Invasive Burr System, Dr. Gostich performs precise bone corrections through tiny incisions.


This system allows for:

  • Percutaneous bone reshaping: Specialized burrs correct deformities without large cuts.
  • Realignment of joints: Restores natural foot mechanics.
  • Minimal soft tissue disruption: Preserves blood supply for better healing.


Why Arthrex Minimally Invasive Burr System?

This advanced system is designed to:

  • Provide accurate bone correction through small portals.
  • Reduce surgical trauma and postoperative complications.
  • Support quicker return to daily activities and footwear.


Benefits for Active Patients

Minimally invasive bunion and hammertoe repair using Arthrex hardware helps patients—especially athletes—get back on their feet faster:

  • Small Incision: Less tissue disruption means quicker healing.
  • Preserved Blood Supply: Ensures optimal recovery and bone health.
  • Stable Fixation: Corrects deformity without overloading joints.
  • Reduced Muscle Atrophy: Earlier weight-bearing prevents weakness and speeds rehabilitation.
