Anterolateral Arthroscopic Posterior Subtalar Arthrodesis: The Surgical Technique.

ABSTRACT: The effectiveness of subtalar arthrodesis has been well documented in treating degenerative subtalar joint disease. The arthroscopic subtalar approach for arthrodesis has also been proved to give excellent results in terms of bone fusion rates and reduction of wound-related pain and complications. To date, the main concerns about arthroscopy have regarded incision-related neurologic complications such as lesions of the tibial, fibular, and sural nerves. In this context, we present a 2-portal lateral (anterior and middle) approach to arthroscopic subtalar arthrodesis, recently documented in the literature, that provides similar excellent access to the joint with a lower risk of nerve damage.

Arthroscopic Posterior Subtalar Arthrodesis: Surgical Technique.

Project description:Surgical fusion of the subtalar joint is a procedure indicated to alleviate pain of subtalar origin, such as in post-traumatic osteoarthritis, adult-acquired flatfoot deformity, and other disorders. Open subtalar arthrodesis has been performed with predictable results, but concerns exist regarding injury to proprioception and local vascularity due to wide surgical dissection. Minimally invasive techniques try to improve results by avoiding these issues but have a reputation for being technically demanding. We describe the surgical technique for arthroscopic subtalar arthrodesis, which has proved to be a safe and reliable technique in our experience, with consistent improvements in American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society scores.

Lateral Arthroscopic Subtalar Arthrodesis for Talocalcaneal Coalition: Surgical Technique.

Project description:Resection of symptomatic talocalcaneal coalitions (TCCs) has been performed for patients with normal tarsal joints and <50% involvement of the subtalar joint. For those with TCCs >50% of subtalar articulation or/and subtalar arthritis, a subtalar arthrodesis is done. The purpose of this Technical Note is to describe the arthroscopic resection of TCC and talocalcaneal arthrodesis during the same procedure by using a 2 lateral portal technique. With the patient in lateral decubitus under general or locoregional anaesthesia, the foot and ankle are extended beyond the edge of the surgical table. A lateral portal is created 1 cm anterior to the tip of the lateral malleolus in which the arthroscope is introduced. The anterolateral portal is created 1 cm inferior and 2 cm anterior to the tip of the lateral malleolus. The posterior subtalar surface is prepared progressively. The TCC resection is completed. The fixation is obtained with 2 cannulated screws. The arthroscopic resection of TCC and subtalar arthrodesis during the same procedure by using 2 lateral portals can be done for correctly selected patients.

Treatment of Malunited Calcaneal Fracture With Posttraumatic Subtalar Osteoarthritis Using Lateral Endoscopic Calcaneoplasty With Posterior Arthroscopic Subtalar Arthrodesis.

Project description:Malunion of calcaneal fractures is a common complication after improper nonoperative treatment. It may develop into posttraumatic subtalar osteoarthritis, lateral calcaneal wall prominence, and severe foot deformities. This Technical Note reports the technical aspects of lateral endoscopic calcaneoplasty with posterior arthroscopic subtalar arthrodesis for the treatment of malunited calcaneal fracture with lateral calcaneal wall prominence and posttraumatic subtalar osteoarthritis. This technique was chosen because it can reduce the risk of wound complication compared with a conventional lateral extensile approach. This Technical Note describes the use of the technique in a patient with prone position. This offers the advantages of easier access to the lateral surface of the calcaneus and posterior facet of the subtalar joint, and is less invasive to the soft tissue envelope on the lateral side of the foot. Moreover, the concomitant bone void area of the subtalar joint can be dealt with by an arthroscopic procedure.

Lateral Hind-Foot Endoscopic Anterolateral/Posterolateral (LEAP) Subtalar Arthrodesis: An Effective Minimally Invasive Technique to Achieve Subtalar Fusion and Deformity Correction.

Project description:Arthrodesis surgery aims to provide relief for chronic joint pain and correct limb alignment by achieving a stable union between articulating bones. The key factors to achieving sound arthrodesis is adequate debridement of arthritic cartilage and creating well-apposed bleeding subchondral bone surfaces without compromising the surrounding soft tissue envelope. Arthroscopic subtalar arthrodesis is technically demanding but provides better visualization of the articular surfaces and is safer for the surrounding soft tissues compared to the open approach. Early published reports of the arthroscopic subtalar arthrodesis from the lateral sinus tarsi approach and posterior approach have shown promising results with high rates of union and less wound healing complications. However, there are concerns about access to all facets of subtalar joint, nerve injury, and deformity correction. In this technique, the article authors describe the lateral endoscopic anterolateral/posterolateral (LEAP) approach for subtalar arthrodesis to improve visualization and access to all facets of the subtalar joint to ensure adequate preparation of apposing surfaces, sound union, and facilitate deformity correction of hind-foot. Strategic portal placement also avoids injury to sural nerve. This is a safe and effective minimally invasive technique for subtalar arthrodesis.

Fibular Intra-articular Resection During Arthroscopic Ankle Arthrodesis: The Surgical Technique.

Project description:Ankle arthrodesis is still considered the gold standard in the treatment of advanced painful ankle osteoarthritis. More than 3 decades ago, it was performed under arthroscopy; thereafter, many authors have reported excellent results and a low complication rate. Despite the significant improvements in surgical techniques, nonunion remains a problematic and relatively frequent event. This is one of the reasons the research is constantly active in this field. Ten years ago, a fibular resection during ankle arthrodesis was, for the first time, described in the literature as a means to correct malalignment in varus cases. Nowadays, we perform a similar technique during all arthroscopic ankle arthrodeses, regardless of the kind of preoperative deformity (varus, valgus, or normal alignment). In this article, we describe the arthroscopic technique to perform a fibular intra-articular resection during arthroscopic ankle arthrodesis, joining the benefits of arthroscopic minimal invasiveness to the full joint contact gained after such a fibular osteotomy. In our opinion, this would be the only way through which full contact between the talar and tibial surfaces may be achieved.

Anterior and Posterior Subtalar Arthroscopy Via Anterolateral and Dorsolateral Portals.

Project description:Sinus tarsi syndrome is the clinical syndrome of lateral heel pain with local tenderness at the sinus tarsi and is frequently associated with a history of inversion sprain to the ankle. The lateral heel pain can be due to the capsule-ligamentous structures lateral to the axis of the anterior and posterior subtalar joints. Anterior and posterior subtalar arthroscopies are needed to detect and treat the disorders of both joints. In this Technical Note, we describe the details of a 2-portal arthroscopic approach to both anterior and posterior subtalar joints. This allows complete examination of all the possible sources of lateral heel pain in sinus tarsi syndrome.

Arthroscopic Resection of Too-Long Anterior Process (TLAP) of the Calcaneus, Anterior Subtalar Synovectomy, Debridement of the Sinus Tarsi, and Posterior Subtalar Adhesiolysis Via Anterolateral Subtalar and Dorsolateral Midtarsal Portals.

Project description:Lateral heel pain can have numerous causes and many of them are intra-articular pathologies of the anterior and posterior subtalar joint. Frequently, there is not a single pathology that account for the lateral heel pain and combination of different pathologies can occur. Symptomatic too-long anterior process of the calcaneus, sinus tarsi syndrome, and subtalar arthrofibrosis can be precipitated by repeated sprain. Cases recalcitrant to conservative treatment are indicated for surgery. The purpose of this Technical Note is to report a 2-portal arthroscopic approach to address these pathologies.

Endoscopic Revision Subtalar Arthrodesis.

Project description:Varus malunion after subtalar arthrodesis is considered to be the worst deformity in hindfoot alignment. Poor clinical outcome is expected if there is more than 10° of varus malunion with lateral column overload. Open revision subtalar arthrodesis is associated with high rates of complications, especially involving soft tissue and nonunion. The purpose of this Technical Note is to describe the technical details of endoscopic revision subtalar arthrodesis in which the correction of varus malunion is performed with a minimally invasive technique, which may reduce the risk of soft tissue complications and nonunion.

Arthroscopic Bone Block Procedure for Posterior Shoulder Instability: Updated Surgical Technique.

Project description:Posterior shoulder instability is generally caused by traumatic posterior dislocations or repetitive microtrauma during sports or other activities and has an annual incidence rate of 4.64 per 100,000 person-years. Several surgical techniques to treat posterior shoulder instability have been described, including soft-tissue repair and both open and arthroscopic bone block procedures. However, even though patient-reported outcomes are commonly high, surgical procedures are associated with high complication and revision rates of up to 14% and 67%, respectively. In particular, accurate placement of the bone graft, screw orientation, and the treatment of concomitant lesions are considered challenging. Therefore, improvement of surgical techniques is desirable. This Technical Note describes an updated approach to the arthroscopic posterior bone block augmentation described by Lafosse et al. (2012), with tips and tricks on the harvest and positioning of the graft.

Arthroscopic Management of a Posterior Femoral Condyle (Hoffa) Fracture: Surgical Technique.

Project description:Unicondylar fractures of the lower end of the femur are uncommon injuries that usually occur in the sagittal plane. A coronal (tangential) plane fracture, first described by Hoffa in 1904, is unusual. It is an intrinsically unstable type of intra-articular fracture that warrants operative fixation, usually by an open technique. A simple method for the treatment of lateral femoral condyle coronal fractures with arthroscopic-assisted reduction and internal fixation by cannulated screws is reported. Managing fractures of the posterior femoral condyle with arthroscopic reduction and fixation with cannulated screws is simple and effective and could be reproducible with good results and a good prognosis.
