Alexej Barg, Samuel Brunner, Lukas Zwicky, Beat Hintermann
Combined subtalar and naviculocuneiform fusion was successful in restoring the longitudinal medial arch after extended breakdown while preserving the talon avicular joint. This surgical technique was shown to give a reliable fusion and biomechanically stable position of the foot. In this review article, we summarize the medial column procedures for flatfoot deformity and present our surgical technique and results of 10 consecutive patients treated with this method at a minimum 1-year follow-up.
