Tarsal coalitions. A surgical classification.
The surgical alternatives for the treatment of tarsal coalitions include procedures as diverse as arthroplasty and arthrodesis. Traditional classifications of tarsal coalitions are primarily descriptive and afford little information regarding preferred treatment.

The coalitions in 8 specimens completely spared the anterior facet of the calcaneus and in 7 specimens it was partially replaced by t...

BACKGROUND Surgical resection of persistently painful talocalcaneal tarsal coalitions may not reliably relieve symptoms in patients with large coalitions associated with excessive hindfoot valgus deformity and subtalar posterior facet narrowing. Since 1991, calcaneal lengthening osteotomy, with or without coalition resection, has been used at our institution to relieve symptoms and to preserve ...
