| Popis: | Limb shortening due to structural bone loss in tibiotalocalcaneal arthrodesis is a concern that can negatively impact the patient’s gait and weight-bearing. To aid in preventing the risk of limb shortening, the use of a femoral head allograft and intramedullary nail in tibiotalocalcaneal arthrodesis has been shown to successfully preserve limb length in patients with structural bone deficits. We present our technique using a femoral head allograft with a cup-and-cone reamer for the treatment of severe ankle and hindfoot deformity. Technique Video Video 1 Intraoperative video and postoperative protocol for a tibiotalocalcaneal arthrodesis with femoral head allograft using a cup-and-cone reamer of the left ankle. The patient is positioned in a partial lateral decubitus position with the surgeon operating through a lateral transfibular approach of the left ankle. |
