The aim of the present retrospective cohort study was to assess the quality of union and the clinical outcomes in patients who had undergone first metatarsophalangeal joint (MTPJ) fusion using a dorsal plate and plantar lag screw. From March 2011 to December 2012, the clinical and radiographic data of 39 patients (41 feet) who had undergone first MTPJ fusion using a compressive locking plate were retrospectively reviewed. All patients had undergone postoperative computed tomography at 6 weeks postoperatively to assess union. The average metatarsophalangeal angles improved from 23° ± 16° preoperatively to 14° ± 5° postoperatively. The dorsiflexion of the hallux at the preoperative assessment averaged 17° ± 11° and 23° ± 5° postoperatively. At 6 weeks postoperatively, the computed tomography scans demonstrated 3 complete fusions (7.3 %) and 38 partial unions (92.7%). Also at 6 weeks, the mean ± standard deviation joint bridging was 54% ± 14.6%. The forefoot American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society scale score had improved significantly from 50 ± 13 preoperatively to 80 ± 7 at >1 year of follow-up (p = .001). Hardware removal was performed in 8 cases because of pain in 7 and infection in 1. Revision arthrodesis was required in 2 cases because of nonunion. At 6 weeks postoperatively, partial bony joint bridging could be observed in most cases after arthrodesis of the first MTPJ with the dorsal fusion plate. 相似文献

Compared with traditional open arthrodesis, arthroscopic ankle arthrodesis has been associated with similar rates of fusion, decreased time to union, decreased pain, shorter hospital stay, earlier mobilization, reliable clinical results, and fewer complications. The aim of this case-control study was to analyze cost differences between outpatient arthroscopic and inpatient open ankle arthrodesis. To this end, the authors analyzed 20 ankle arthrodesis procedures: 10 performed by one surgeon on an inpatient basis using an open approach, and 10 performed by another surgeon on an outpatient basis arthroscopically. Patient age, body mass index, tourniquet time, length of stay, complications, days to clinical union, and insurance type, as well as charges and reimbursements for the surgeons and the hospital or surgery center were abstracted from the records. Statistically significant differences were observed between the outpatient arthroscopic and inpatient open arthrodesis groups for total site charges ($3898 ± 0.00 versus $32,683 ± $12,762, respectively, P < .0001), reimbursement to the surgeon ($1567 ± $320 versus $1107 ± $278, respectively, P = .003), and reimbursement to the hospital or ambulatory surgery center ($1110 ± $287 versus $8432 ± $2626, respectively); the ratio of hospital/surgery center charges to hospital/surgery center reimbursements was 28.48% for the inpatient arthroscopic group and 25.80% for the inpatient open arthrodesis group. Outpatient arthroscopic ankle arthrodesis, compared with inpatient open ankle arthrodesis, appears to be less expensive for third party payers, and surgeons are paid more, whereas hospitals and ambulatory surgical centers get paid a greater proportion of the charges that they bill. 相似文献

Arthroscopic ankle arthrodesis provides the surgeon with an alternative to?traditional open techniques. Arthroscopic ankle arthrodesis has demonstrated faster union rates, decreased complications, reduced postoperative pain, and shorter hospital stays. Adherence to sound surgical techniques, particularly with regard to joint preparation, is critical for success. Although total ankle replacement continues to grow in popularity, arthroscopic ankle arthrodesis remains a viable alternative for the management of end-stage arthritic ankle. 相似文献

Tibiotalocalcaneal arthrodesis (TTCA) is a well-established operative procedure for different severe pathologic conditions of the ankle and hindfoot joints. We present our results with a modified technique of TTCA using an intramedullary fibular strut graft in a series of complex cases of patients treated for multiple etiologies shown to have improved union rates. The technique involves inserting the fibular strut graft intramedullary after joint preparation and the use of either a Taylor spatial frame or plate and screws for definitive fixation. We reviewed the records of 16 patients who had undergone TTCA with this technique at our hospital from September 2013 to April 2015. Sixteen patients (10 males [62.5%] and 6 females [37.5%]) were included in the present study. These patients had complex cases and multiple risk factors, including diabetes, smoking, poor bone stock, and a history of previous surgeries. The mean follow-up time was 9.1 (range 9 to 18) months. Thirteen patients (81.2%) subsequently achieved union. The mean visual analog scale scores at the final follow-up examination had improved from 6.9 to 1.2. We suggest that our technique of TTCA with intramedullary fibular strut graft with fixation is a reasonable option to salvage complex cases with risk factors for operative complications. 相似文献

The optimal time to treat neuropathic (Charcot) arthropathy of the ankle and peritalar joint is controversial because of the various treatment options available and the variable results reported in published studies. We sought to determine the outcome of hind foot arthrodesis with stable internal fixation in patients with different Eichenholtz stages of arthropathy. We prospectively studied patients with substantial disabilities caused by neuropathic arthropathy in deformed, unstable ankle and peritalar joints, with or without ulcerations, who had undergone treatment from July 2007 to December 2012. All patients underwent ankle arthrodesis, autologous iliac crest bone grafting, and subtalar joint arthrodesis, with or without talonavicular joint arthrodesis, fixed internally with an intramedullary hindfoot nail, with or without an additional plate or cancellous screws. Of the 33 enrolled patients, 9 (27.3%) had stage I, 13 (39.4%) had stage II, and 11 (33.3%) had stage III Charcot arthropathy. The cause of arthropathy was diabetes mellitus in 25 (75.8%) patients. The duration of symptoms ranged from 1 to 120 (median 7) months. The mean follow-up period was 40 (range 12 to 76) months and did not differ markedly among the groups. The hindfoot scores, rate of salvage or amputation, or complication rates did not differ significantly across Eichenholtz stage. For the patients with stage I, II, and III, the preoperative hindfoot score was 50, 49, and 48, respectively (p = .9). The corresponding postoperative scores were 68, 68, and 70 (p = .5). We found no evidence that the effectiveness of hindfoot arthrodesis by stable fixation varied across the Eichenholtz stage of Charcot arthropathy involving ankle and peritalar joint. Furthermore, we found that stable internal fixation and bone grafting using a hindfoot nail results in an 84.84% union rate and salvages the unstable and disabled foot in 90.9% of patients with ankle and peritalar Charcot arthropathy. 相似文献

A retrospective review was performed on 14 patients (20 arthrodeses) who had undergone midfoot arthrodesis with a semi-constrained, locking anterior cervical plate as a form of adjunctive fixation. Fusion sites where the plate was used for the purpose of arthrodesis included the talonavicular joint, medial naviculocuneiform joints, first metatarsal cuneiform joint, and the calcaneal cuboid joint. All arthrodesis sites used one other type of fixation for the purpose of axial compression. Twenty midfoot arthrodesis sites went on to radiographic union at a mean of 9.1+/-1.5 weeks. A single complication of hardware irritation occurred in one patient that resolved after plate removal. This semi-constrained, locking anterior cervical plate appears to be a viable adjunct to fixation constructs for the purpose of midfoot arthrodesis. 相似文献

The goal of the present study was to analyze a modified American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) ankle-hindfoot scale score, time to union, and the incidence of fusion after isolated arthroscopic posterior subtalar arthrodesis using either 1 or 2 screws of different diameters. We reviewed a consecutive series of 65 patients, mean age 50.0?±?15.6 years, including 38 males (58.5%) and 27 females (41.5%), who had undergone arthrodesis from May 2004 to February 2011. The mean follow-up duration was 57.5 (range 24 to 105) months. The patients were divided into 3 groups according to the fixation method used: group 1 (n = 12; 18.5%) underwent fixation with one 6.5-mm screw; group 2 (n = 40; 61.5%) with one 7.3-mm screw; and group 3 (n = 13; 20%) with two 7.3-mm screws. An overall statistically significant (p?<.0001) improvement was seen in the modified AOFAS scale score for all 3 fixation groups; however, the difference was not statistically significant (p?=?.79) among the fixation groups. Fusion was achieved in 62 patients (95.4%) after a mean of 12.1 (range 9 to 16) weeks. The difference in the time to union was not statistically significant (p?=?.781) among the fixation groups. Nine patients (13.8%) experienced complications, and nonunion was significantly (p?=?.005) more prevalent in the single 6.5-mm screw group. In conclusion, all 3 screw configurations led to improved modified AOFAS scale scores, although nonunion was more common among patients fixed with a single 6.5-mm screw. 相似文献

Medial column arthrodesis and calcaneal osteotomies are commonly used for adult-acquired flatfoot surgical reconstruction. In this case series, 10 patients (11 feet) with a mean age of 54 ± 13 years underwent a medial column arthrodesis, with or without calcaneal osteotomy, between 2010 and 2017. The indication for surgery was a painful flatfoot deformity with peritalar subluxation and a fault in the naviculocuneiform joint. At a mean of 9.9 (range 2.5 to 33.1) months after surgery, in patients who underwent a medial column arthrodesis, radiographs showed a mean decrease in the talonavicular coverage angle of 8.4° ± 8.5° (p?=?.013), and mean increases in the lateral talometatarsal and calcaneal inclination angle of 10.6° ± 10.3° (p?=?.002) and 2.2° ± 4.4° (p?=?.067), respectively. One nonunion (1 of 11 [9.1%]) occurred at the naviculocuneiform. These findings demonstrate marked improvement of radiographic flatfoot parameters after medial column arthrodesis. 相似文献

Isolated talonavicular arthrodesis is a commonly performed surgical intervention. Nonunion is a dreaded complication. The aim of the present study was to analyze the clinical and radiologic outcome of talonavicular arthrodesis using a dual approach with 2-side screw fixation. From February 2012 to September 2014, isolated talonavicular arthrodesis was performed on 17 joints of 16 patients (mean age 59.12 years). All procedures were performed by a single surgeon. The incidence of union, visual analog scale scores, and complications were analyzed. Radiographic union was achieved in all 17 cases (100%) at a mean period of 13.12 weeks. The visual analog scale scores had improved significantly (p < .001) at a mean follow-up of 48.53 weeks. One patient (6%) had minimal wound problems, and one (6%) showed prolonged swelling postoperatively. We have concluded that the dual window approach with 2-side screw fixation for isolated talonavicular arthrodesis results in excellent clinical and radiographic results and high fusion rates. 相似文献

The medial double arthrodesis, comprised of subtalar and talonavicular joint fusions, has become a popular way to correct hindfoot deformity. There is potential concern for an increase in ankle valgus postoperatively owing to extended medial dissection and possible disruption of the deltoid ligament. Although this approach is often used to correct a valgus hindfoot, little attention has been paid to date on this procedure’s effect on the tibiotalar joint. Although the medial double arthrodesis has been shown to produce reproducible outcomes without violating the lateral hindfoot structures, our hypothesis was that this approach would increase the ankle valgus deformity compared with its triple counterpart. The primary goal of the present retrospective study was to identify the frequency and severity of ankle valgus after the medial double arthrodesis compared with the triple arthrodesis. A total of 77 patients (78 feet) met our inclusion criteria. Their mean age was 61.3 ± 10.7 (range 27 to 79) years, and the follow-up period was 15.7 ± 9.9 (range 6 to 46) months. There were 16 and 61 patients (62 feet) in the medial double and triple arthrodesis groups, respectively. Overall, the preoperative ankle valgus was 1.24° ± 2.02° (range 0° to 6°), and there was no statistical difference of preoperative ankle valgus noted between groups (p = .060). Collectively, postoperative ankle valgus was 3.01° ± 3.54° (0° to 17°) with an increase in ankle valgus in 4 of 16 medial double and 34 of 62 triple arthrodesis patients. With a mean follow-up of 8.75 ± 4.02 (6 to 21) months, the medial double arthrodesis cohort's ankle valgus increased from 0.5° ± 1.55° (0° to 6°) to 1.5° ± 3.14° (1° to 10°) postoperatively. The triple arthrodesis group had a mean follow-up 17.53 ± 10.17 (6 to 46) months and ankle valgus increased from 1.44° ± 2.09° (0 to 6°) to 3.40° ± 3.56° (0° to 17°). Postoperative ankle valgus was statistically significant between groups (U = 303.50, p = .013). The odds of having an increase in the valgus ankle angle for patients in the triple group was 3.64 times that for patients in the double group, while holding all other variables in the model constant. 相似文献

Arthroscopic subtalar arthrodesis has recently gained popularity in the treatment of primary subtalar or post-traumatic arthritis, coalition, or inflammatory diseases with subtalar arthritis. The present study reports the clinical and radiologic results of 19 patients (19 feet) who underwent posterior arthroscopic subtalar arthrodesis using 2 posterior portals. A total of 19 posterior arthroscopic subtalar arthrodeses (minimum follow-up of 24 months) performed without a bone graft and with 2 parallel screws were prospectively evaluated. The fusion rate was 94% (mean time to fusion 9.8 weeks). Modified American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society ankle-hindfoot scale score (maximum 94 points) improved significantly from 43 to 80 points and the visual analog scale for pain score improved from 7.6 to 1.2. The 12-item short-form physical and mental scores at the last follow-up point were 52.5 and 56.4, respectively. One (5.3%) patient underwent open repeat fusion for nonunion, 2 (10.5%) patients required a second procedure for implant removal, and 1 (5.3%) experienced reversible neuropraxia. In conclusion, posterior arthroscopic subtalar arthrodesis is a safe technique with a good union rate and a small number of complications in patients with no or very little hindfoot deformity. 相似文献

Charcot neuroarthropathy of the ankle joint is a destructive process that leads to instability and significant morbidity that can end with amputation. Surgical arthrodesis in Charcot neuroarthropathy has a high failure rate. The aim of the present prospective study was to compare the outcomes of an Ilizarov external fixator and retrograde intramedullary nailing (IMN) for tibiotalar arthrodesis in Charcot neuroarthropathy. From February 2010 to October 2013, 27 patients (16 males and 11 females) with Charcot neuropathy of the ankle joint were treated in our department. Their ages ranged from 32 to 75 (average 54) years. Of the 27 patients, 14 received an Ilizarov external fixator and 13 underwent IMN. A preoperative clinical and radiologic assessment of all patients was performed. The outcomes were measured for bone union, development of complications, and clinical follow-up. The mean score of modified American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society ankle hindfoot scale was 80 ± 2.7 points in the Ilizarov group and 75 ± 1.9 points in the IMN group. In the Ilizarov group, 12 of 14 patients achieved union, and in the IMN group, 10 of 13 patients achieved union. The complication rate was significantly greater in the external fixator group than in the IMN group. The complications in the Ilizarov group included nonunion in 2 patients (14%), pin tract infection in 8 (57%), pin tract loosening in 3 (21%), surgical wound infection in 3 (21%), and wound breakdown in 1 patient (7%). In the IMN group, nonunion occurred in 3 patients (23.1%), back-out of a distal locking bolt in 2 (15.4 %), and a superficial wound infection that resolved with antibiotics in 1 patient (7.7%). In conclusion, retrograde IMN and the Ilizarov external fixator both yielded better union for tibiotalar arthrodesis in Charcot neuroarthropathy. The Ilizarov external fixator resulted in a greater union rate than IMN but the complications with external fixation were significantly greater than those with IMN. 相似文献

Management of the end-stage adult acquired flatfoot has historically been accomplished with a traditional two-incision triple arthrodesis. Although this procedure is well accepted, complications such as lateral wound dehiscence, nonunion, undercorrection, and residual deformity have been reported. The medial approach double arthrodesis is presented to offer the foot and ankle surgeon an alternative option to the long-standing, severe valgus foot. It has been the author's experience that the medial approach has fewer wound complications, higher union rates, and shorter operative and recovery times. Additionally, it is thought to provide similar correction as the traditional triple arthrodesis while alleviating the need for grafting of the calcaneocuboid joint. 相似文献

BackgroundArthroscopic ankle arthrodesis is gaining in popularity. It has been shown to have a shorter time to union and less morbidity than traditional open procedures. The arthroscopic technique has been mainly used for ankles with minimal deformity. Our aim was to find out whether we could reproduce the good results of arthroscopic ankle arthrodesis in both minimally and markedly deformed ankles.MethodsWe reviewed 62 patients who underwent an arthroscopic ankle arthrodesis for end stage arthritis. The average follow up was 63 months (range 21–92 months). Patients were evaluated subjectively and objectively using the Mazur grading system. 4 patients died before final review and 3 were lost to follow-up leaving 55 patients for evaluation.The pre-operative tibiotalar angle in the coronal plane was between 26° valgus and 24° varus. We divided our patients into 2 groups based on the tibiotalar angle. Group A (n = 31) had a varus or valgus deformity of less than 15? and Group B (n = 24) had a deformity equal to or more than 15°.ResultsThe overall fusion rate was 91%. Fusion occurred in 29 of 31 (94%) ankles in Group A compared to 21 of 24 (88%) in Group B (p = 0.64).The overall mean time to union was 10.4 weeks. The time to union in Group A was 8.8 weeks compared to 12.7 weeks for Group B (p = 0.001). Using the Mazur ankle grading system, 84% of the cases in Group A had a good to excellent result compared to 79% in Group B (p = 0.73). There were 2 superficial infections, 2 cases of deep vein thrombosis and 3 patients required removal of prominent screws.ConclusionsWe have shown that arthroscopic ankle arthrodesis yields reliable and reproducible results in a District General Hospital setting with high union rates, short time to union and low complication rates. It can be satisfactorily employed for ankles with significant deformity, although this resulted in a longer time to union. The end results remain uniformly good to excellent. 相似文献

First metatarsophalangeal (MTP-1) joint fusion is a reliable method for the correction of various deformities, including hallux valgus and hallux rigidus. Ideal constructs provide high rates of fusion in the desired alignment. The present study examined the union rates and the change in dorsiflexion angle during the follow-up period in patients who had undergone MTP-1 fusion with a dorsal locking plate and a lag screw compared with patients who had undergone fusion with a dorsal locking plate alone. We performed a retrospective review of 99 feet undergoing MTP-1 fusion. The joints were fused using either a dorsal locking plate alone or a lag screw plus a dorsal locking plate. Union was determined radiographically during the follow-up period. Suspected nonunions were confirmed by computed tomography. The dorsiflexion angles were radiographically measured at the first postoperative visit and at the final follow-up visit. Of the 99 feet, 36 (36.4%) were in the lag screw plus dorsal plate group and 63 (63.6%) in the dorsal plate group. The mean follow-up period was 12.9 (range 12 to 33.5) months. The dorsal plate plus lag screw group had a significantly lower change in the mean dorsiflexion angle (0.57°?±?5.01°) during the postoperative period compared with the dorsal plate group (6.73°?±?7.07°). The addition of a lag screw to a dorsal locking plate for MTP-1 arthrodesis might offer improved stability of the joint in the sagittal plane over time compared with a dorsal plate alone. 相似文献

Objective
The aim of this study was to describe an alternative fixation method for distal humeral extra-articular fractures through posterior approach using distal tibia anatomic locking plate; and to evaluate the patient's functional outcome and union condition.Methods
Eighteen patients (11 men and 7 women; average age of 37.0 ± 17.3 years (range: 18–73 years)) with a distal humeral extra-articular fracture who were treated with distal tibial medial locking plate were included into the study. The mean follow up time was 36.2 ± 16.7 (12–57) months. Functional results were evaluated with perception of pain, range of joint motion, grasp and pinch strengths.Results
Union was achieved in 17 of 18 patients. Only one patient had non-union due to infection and underwent debridement. The mean time for union was 7.8 ± 5.9 months (2–20). Patient perception of pain was X = 1.88 ± 2.50 and X = 4.55 ± 2.68, respectively, at rest and activity. The active ranges of joint motion were adequate for functional use. General functional state of affected extremity (DASH-T) was perfect (X = 27.14 ± 25.66), the performance of elbow joint was good (X = 84.44 ± 11.57). There were no differences in the comparison of grasp and pinch grip of patients with uninvolved extremity (p > 0.05).Conclusions
In distal humeral extra-articular fractures, use of distal medial tibia plate has advantages such as providing high rates for union, low rates for complication, and early return to work with early rehabilitation, therefore it may be considered a fixation choice that can be used for distal humeral extra-articular fractures.Level of evidence

Surgical treatment for end-stage ankle joint tuberculosis (TB) has rarely been reported. This study followed cases treated by arthroscopic arthrodesis for ankle joint TB to evaluate its efficacy and safety in the clinic. Patients who underwent arthroscopic ankle arthrodesis for ankle joint TB between April 11, 2010, and December 31, 2016, were followed. Their diagnoses were confirmed by bacterial culture or pathological examination. During arthroscopy, tissue samples were first obtained to further confirm the diagnosis. Then the necrotic tissue, hyperplasia of synovial tissue, and exfoliated cartilage were removed. Ankle joint arthrodesis was performed if the area of articular cartilage damage was >2 cm2. Continued nutritional support and standardized anti-TB drug treatment were given after surgery. Follow-up measurements included visual analogue scale score, American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society score, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, and radiographic imaging. All 9 patients in this study, with an average age of 54 (range 37 to 68) years, were followed. The mean follow-up duration was 55.44 ± 31.15 (range 24 to 96) months. There were significant differences in the visual analogue scale scores, American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society scores, and erythrocyte sedimentation rate between before treatment and 18 months postoperatively (p < .05). All patients (100%) showed union at 18 ± 4 weeks. Arthroscopic treatment for ankle joint TB has the advantages of minor trauma and low complications. It can be used to accurately obtain samples from specific areas of TB for further diagnosis. According to the degree of articular cartilage damage, the surgeon can determine whether to perform arthrodesis. Thorough debridement of necrotic tissue and residual articular cartilage on the fusion surface can improve the rate of ankle fusion. 相似文献

Triple arthrodesis is commonly used to correct complex deformity with hindfoot valgus. The authors use an isolated medial incisional approach for subtalar and talonavicular joint arthrodesis to correct hindfoot deformity, including high degrees of hindfoot valgus. To assess outcomes achieved with this approach, we reviewed the records of 45 patients from the practices of 5 surgeons. Independent variables evaluated included patient age, primary pathology, use of biologic agents, operative time, time to union, and complications. The median patient age was 57 years (range, 14-78 years). Pathology leading to fusion included 27 (60%) posterior tibial tendon dysfunction, 6 (13.3%) tarsal coalition, 7 (5.5%) degenerative joint disease, 2 (4.4%) rheumatoid arthritis, and 1 (2.2%) each, with Charcot neuroarthropathy, multiple sclerosis, and poliomyelitis. Orthobiological materials were used in 27 (60.0%) of the patients. The median duration of surgery was 87 minutes (range, 65-164 minutes), and the median time to successful arthrodesis was 8 weeks (range, 6-20 weeks). A complication was observed in 6 (13.3%) of the patients, including 1 each of the following: painful calcaneal-cuboid joint, talar fracture, incision dehiscence, poor exposure that required abandonment of the procedure, elevated first ray, and painful fixation. None of the patients experienced a nonunion or an adverse event related to the medial neurovascular structures. Based on our experience with the procedure, the single medial–incision subtalar and talonavicular joint arthrodesis is a useful alternative to triple arthrodesis for the correction of hindfoot valgus deformity. 相似文献

Background
It is thought that arthroscopic ankle fusion offers improved outcomes over open fusion in terms of functional outcomes, time to fusion, length of stay and fewer complications. However, there are doubts about whether correction of established severe deformity can be achieved using the arthroscopic approach.Methods
A retrospective review of medical records and radiographs at our hospital identified consecutive tibio-talar ankle fusions between April 2009 and March 2014 with minimum 1 year follow up. Records were scrutinised for type of arthrodesis, demographics, length of stay (LOS), time to fusion (TTF), pre- and postoperative deformity, complications and unplanned procedures. Significant factors in the complication group were then compared, using multivariate binary logistic backward stepwise regression to see if any factors were predictive.Results
There were 29 open and 50 arthroscopic ankle fusions (2 converted to open). Mean LOS was 1.93 versus 2.52 days (p = 0.590). TTF was shorter after arthroscopic fusion 196d versus 146d (p = 0.083). Severe deformity (>10°) was correctable to within 5° of neutral in the majority of cases (97% versus 96%, p = 0.903). Union occurred in 83% versus 98% (p = 0.0134). The open arthrodesis group had 9 (31%) complications (1 death-PE, 1 SPN injury, 5 non-unions, 1 delayed union and 1 wound infection) and 6 (25%) screw removals. The arthroscopic arthrodesis group had 4 (8%) complications (1 non-union, 1 reactivation of osteomyelitis and subsequent BKA, 1 wound infection, 1 delayed union) with 11 (24%) screw removals. After multi-variant regression analysis of all ankle fusions, low BMI was shown to be associated with complications (p = 0.064).Conclusions
Open arthrodesis was associated with a higher rate of complications and a lower rate of fusion. However, there was no significant difference in terms of LOS and ability to correct deformity compared to arthroscopic arthrodesis. Overall, low BMI was also associated with more complications. 相似文献20.
The Cotton osteotomy or opening wedge medial cuneiform osteotomy is a useful adjunctive flatfoot reconstructive procedure that is commonly performed; however, the outcomes are rarely reported owing to the adjunctive nature of the procedure. The Cotton procedure is relatively quick to perform and effectively corrects forefoot varus deformity after rearfoot fusion or osteotomy to achieve a rectus forefoot to rearfoot relationship. Proper patient selection is critical because the preoperative findings of medial column joint instability, concomitant hallux valgus deformity, or degenerative joint disease of the medial column might be better treated by arthrodesis of the naviculocuneiform or first tarsometatarsal joints. Procedure indications also include elevatus of the first ray, which can be a primary deformity in hallux limitus or an iatrogenic deformity after base wedge osteotomy for hallux valgus. We undertook an institutional review board-approved retrospective review of 32 consecutive patients (37 feet) who had undergone Cotton osteotomy as a part of flatfoot reconstruction. All but 1 case (2.7%) had radiographic evidence of graft incorporation at 10 weeks. No patient experienced graft shifting. Three complications (8.1%) were identified, including 2 cases with neuritis (5.4%) and 1 case of delayed union (2.7%) that healed with a bone stimulator at 6 months postoperatively. Meary's angle improved an average of 17.75°, from ?17.24°± 8.00° to 0.51°± 3.81°, and this change was statistically significant (p < .01). The present retrospective series highlights our experience with the use of the Cotton osteotomy as an adjunctive procedure in flatfoot reconstructive surgery. 相似文献
