Indications for revisional subtalar fusions include traumatic arthritis or trauma, malalignment, nonunions, progressive Charcot neuroarthropathy, subsequent infection, and inflammatory arthridities. Often, there are greater systemic causes that …

2023年7月7日 · Revision subtalar joint arthrodesis is associated with lower union rates and increased time to union as compared with primary subtalar joint arthrodesis. Infection must be ruled out or treated if subtalar joint nonunion is encountered.

There are traditional approaches to isolated subtalar joint arthrodesis; however, when these fail, the authors recommend alternatives to enhance the success of revisional surgery. These include the use of intramedullary nailing, larger harvest of autograft, and metallic wedge.

2019年10月28日 · Subtalar arthrodesis is an invaluable tool in managing arthritis, deformity, and muscular imbalance of the hindfoot. However, failed arthrodesis is complicated by bone necrosis, sclerosis with loss of bone, less than ideal biologic settings, and the …

2018年10月14日 · Subtalar arthrodesis is an effective treatment for pathology of the hindfoot including post-traumatic arthritis, talocalcaneal coalition, posterior tibial tendon dysfunction, isolated subtalar joint instability, and inflammatory arthritis. 1 The aims of a subtalar arthrodesis are to treat constant pain by immobilization of the subtalar joint ...

2021年5月3日 · This study aimed to assess the midterm clinical and radiologic results of subtalar joint revision arthrodesis and to analyze the risk factors that might influence the outcome of this procedure.

Conclusions: Revision arthrodesis of the subtalar joint remains a challenging issue with a relatively high rate of nonunion, especially in a population of patients with multiple risk factors. Level of evidence: Level IV, retrospective case series. Keywords: foot and ankle; nonunion; revision arthrodesis; subtalar arthrodesis; subtalar revision.

Subtalar arthrodesis is an invaluable tool in managing arthritis, deformity, and muscular imbalance of the hindfoot. However, failed arthrodesis is complicated by bone necrosis, sclerosis with loss of bone, less than ideal biologic settings, and the literature reports a high rate of non-union.

2015年7月1日 · In the present case report, we report a new method for revision arthrodesis of the subtalar joint in the presence of ankle joint fusion. A porous metal spacer was interposed in the subtalar joint and fixated with an intramedullary nail.

2019年3月1日 · Subtalar arthrodesis is an effective treatment for pathology of the hindfoot including post-traumatic arthritis, talocalcaneal coalition, posterior tibial tendon dysfunction, isolated subtalar joint instability, and inflammatory arthritis. 1 The aims of a subtalar arthrodesis are to treat constant pain by immobilization of the subtalar joint ...
