Whereas arthroscopic arthrodesis of the ankle is commonplace and of the subtalar joint is established, reports of arthroscopic talo-navicular fusion are a rarity. To review a case series to establish if arthroscopic talo-navicular arthrodesis is a feasible surgical option.Background
Aim
In a consecutive series of 71 arthroscopic subtalar arthrodeses performed between 2004 and 2011, 14 also involved arthroscopic decortication of the talonavicular joint (double arthrodesis) and 4 the subtalar, talonavicular and calcaneocuboid joints (triple arthrodeses). We examined complications, union rates in all 18 patients and clinical outcomes in 16 for whom this was the sole procedure.Introduction:
