  • Title: Subtalar Arthroereisis for Surgical Treatment of Flexible Flatfoot.
    Author: De Pellegrin M, Moharamzadeh D.
    Journal: Foot Ankle Clin; 2021 Dec; 26(4):765-805. PubMed ID: 34752238.
    Abstract:
    Various surgical techniques are known for the treatment of flexible flatfoot in children after failure of nonsurgical attempts. Data collected in a review of the last 10-year period (2010-2020) show that among the 691 feet undergoing subtalar arthroereisis with endorthesis, average age at surgery was 11.40 years and in the 1856 feet that underwent subtalar arthroereisis with calcaneo-stop 11.69 years, while the complications rate was 9.00% and 6.38%, respectively. These data confirm that subtalar arthroereisis with calcaneo-stop may have an advantage over subtalar arthroereisis with endorthesis as the screw is not placed across the subtalar joint but instead into the calcaneus.
