Reconstruction of the hindfoot after removal of osteomyelitic calcaneus

Abstract

This technique is trained on the restoration of weight-bearing and anatomically proper contours of the hindfoot in combination with purulent-and-inflammatory process stopping in patients with osteomyelitic calcaneus. The goal is achieved by removal of osteomyelitic calcaneus, the ankle and talonavicular arthrodesis, anterior talar osteotomy, as well as graduated transporting the tibial ana talar fragments synostosed and their turning downwards and backwards in combination with tibiocuboidal synostosis formation.
