We explored the impact of peroneus brevis (PB) to peroneus longus (PL) transfer in the adult population with flexible PCFD deformities class A1 (flexible hindfoot valgus), B1 (flexible midfoot abduction), and C1 (flexible forefoot varus) as an augmentative measure combined with various bony procedures with proper assessment functionally, clinically, and radiologically. PB to PL tendon transfer poses a simple procedure dealing with muscle imbalance between the medial and lateral columns of the foot. It deals with the new understanding of the PCFD complex as a three-dimensional deformity. It works mainly on the axial plane to limit midfoot abduction and strongly augments the PL acting on the sagittal plane to address the forefoot varus. Finally, to a lesser extent, it deals with the coronal plane of hindfoot valgus, eliminating the primary evertor of the foot (PB) while simultaneously strengthening the PL, which contributes to the medial longitudinal and transverse arches of the foot, therefore decreasing the possibility of lateral column overload commonly caused by the Evans osteotomy through reducing pressure across the calcaneocuboid joint. This procedure is preferably indicated for flexible PCFD deformities class (A1, B1, and C1), yet is contraindicated in neuromuscular deformities with peroneal nerve palsy.\u0000 \u0000 Level of Evidence: Level IV.","PeriodicalId":507475,"journal":{"name":"Techniques in Foot & Ankle Surgery","volume":" 10","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139621777","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Notably, it is also very versatile in that the degree of sagittal correction can be adjusted freely. The use of anatomic Cotton plates with titanium wedge integration makes the osteotomy even more robust with the prevention of early loss of correction and reduction of shear forces at the osteotomy site.

As an open approach may display wound healing problems, we herein report a novel method of percutaneously performed minimally invasive scarf calcaneal osteotomy. Twenty patients aged 56.75 ± 7.13 with grade 1AB of PCFD were included. A radiologic assessment was performed before the procedure and after 3 months. Clinical evaluation was done before the procedure, after 3 months, and after 12 months. The Manchester-Oxford Foot Questionnaire and Functional Foot Index score improved from 77.63 ± 11.67 preoperatively to 33.29 ± 18.55 at the follow-up (P < 0.001) and from 69.26 ± 16.32 preoperatively to 32.00 ± 20.35 at the follow-up (P < 0.001), respectively. There was a statistically significant improvement in all radiologic measurements, namely, talonavicular coverage angle from 20.03 ± 5.51 to 14.18 ± 6.49 (P < 0.001), the distance between medial cuneiform and fifth metatarsal from 0.53 ± 3.31 to 6.95 ± 4.01 (P < 0.001), anteroposterior talo-first metatarsal angle from 22.13 ± 7.28 to 17.09 ± 6.87 (P < 0.005), Meary angle from 25.12 ± 2.73 to 15.17 ± 7.06 (P < 0.001), calcaneal inclination angle from 12.23 ± 4.01 to 16.82 ± 5.53 (P < 0.001), navicular height from 15.57 ± 4.10 to 20.57 ± 6.87 (P < 0.005), and tibio-calcaneal angle from −3.79 ± 5.15 to 6.71 ± 4.41 (P < 0.001).

Here we introduce the “split-tendon docking” technique as an alternative, aiming to maintain the strength of the tendon coaptation while reducing its profile. Preoperative evaluation is discussed, including clinical and imaging assessments. The technique is described, including the approach, graft preparation, and docking technique. Complications and postoperative care are considered. While the technique requires further use and validation, it presents a promising, lower-profile alternative for foot and ankle tendon coaptation.

In recent years, excision of the deep peroneal nerve has been offered as a potential alternative. Existing literature on the outcomes of patients undergoing deep peroneal neurectomy for the treatment of midfoot arthritis is limited and piecemeal. In this comprehensive review, technique guide, and retrospective case series, we consolidate the evidence around deep peroneal neurectomy for midfoot arthritis, review operative technique, and determine the outcomes of 4 patients who underwent deep peroneal neurectomy from February 2021 to December 2022 using Patient-Reported Outcome Measurement Information System Physical Function and Pain Interference scores. Four original articles from National Center for Biotechnology Information Medline, published through May 2023, were included. The outcomes of patients treated with deep peroneal neurectomy for midfoot arthritis are discussed. In our case series, the average amount of time between surgery and final postoperative Patient-Reported Outcome Measurement Information System scores was 289 days. The average preoperative physical function score was 36.8. Three patients showed a minimal clinically important difference in physical function; postoperative average was 41.3. Three patients had a minimally clinical important reduction in pain levels (average preoperative pain interference score was 65.8; average postoperative pain interference score was 59.3). One patient underwent a revision neurectomy for inadequate pain relief, and another sought additional treatment for inadequate pain relief. All patients returned to walking in a shoe within 1 month. The outcomes of our case series are similar to those of previously published case series, which demonstrate satisfactory results and acceptable complication rates. For patients with symptomatic midfoot arthritis, deep peroneal neurectomy can be an effective treatment option to reduce pain and improve physical function while requiring minimal postoperative recovery time.","PeriodicalId":507475,"journal":{"name":"Techniques in Foot &amp; Ankle Surgery","volume":"30 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139167565","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Tibiotalocalcaneal arthrodesis (TTCA) is gaining popularity for the surgical treatment of ankle fractures in these medically complex patients. This is traditionally performed with open joint preparation or no joint preparation, both of which have associated postoperative complications. We present our technique for arthroscopic-assisted TTCA and provide a retrospective case series of 4 patients undergoing this technique and their outcomes. Our study showed that arthroscopically-assisted joint preparation for TTCA for ankle fractures in patients with severe medical comorbidities shows promise considering 100% limb salvage rate, successful fusion, and restoration of ambulatory status. Complications were minimal requiring only one return to the operating room for symptomatic aseptic loosening of an interlocking screw. Because this is done in a minimally invasive approach, it may be the preferred technique more widely used in the future to decrease the rate of infection and increase the rate of fusion, especially in medically complex patients.
