  • Title: Subtalar joint arthroereisis in adult-acquired flatfoot and posterior tibial tendon dysfunction.
    Author: Chang TJ, Lee J.
    Journal: Clin Podiatr Med Surg; 2007 Oct; 24(4):687-97, viii. PubMed ID: 17908637.
    Abstract:
    The concept of subtalar arthroereisis seems to be gaining popularity in adult-acquired flatfoot surgery. There is wide acceptance of this approach in the pediatric population, but the use of these devices in the adult population is still controversial. Care needs to be taken to select the proper patients and to avoid overuse of these devices. The authors believe these implants will continue to provide a significant benefit to certain patients when selected properly.
