Treatment of hindfoot and ankle pathologies with posterior arthroscopic techniques
نویسندگان
چکیده
The two-portal hindfoot arthroscopy is an effective procedure enabling direct visualisation of posterior ankle pathology with low invasiveness.An important stage of the hindfoot endoscopy is localisation of the flexor hallucis longus (FHL) tendon to protect the neurovascular bundle which is located just medial to it.Posterior ankle impingement syndrome and FHL tenosynovitis are common causes of posterior ankle pain and frequently occur together.Posteriorly localised talar osteochondral lesions, Achilles tendon disorders, osteoarthritis, talar bone cysts and talar fractures are among the other pathologies that can be treated with hindfoot arthroscopy.

Posterior Ankle and Hindfoot Arthroscopy
Hindfoot pain can be caused by any part of the posterior ankle anatomy with bony and soft tissue, including os trigonum, large posterior talar process, tenosynovitis of the flexor hallucis longus tendon, osteochondral lesions of the talus, subtalar arthritis and arthrosis, prominent calcaneus posterior process and free bodies, such as synovial chondromatosis. Because these structures are deeply...

PURPOSE The purposes of this study were to identify the pathologic findings of sinus tarsi syndrome (STS) by subtalar arthroscopy and to evaluate the results of arthroscopic treatments in 33 consecutive cases. METHODS A retrospective review was performed in 31 consecutive patients (33 cases) who underwent subtalar arthroscopic treatment for STS. The mean follow-up duration was 24 months (rang...

متن کاملHindfoot endoscopy for posterior ankle impingement. Surgical technique.
BACKGROUND The surgical treatment of posterior ankle impingement is associated with a high rate of complications and a substantial time to recover. An endoscopic approach to the posterior ankle (hindfoot endoscopy) may lack these disadvantages. We hypothesized that hindfoot endoscopy causes less morbidity and facilitates a quick recovery compared with open surgery. METHODS Fifty-five consecut...
