Clin Podiatr Med Surg. 2008 Oct;25(4):655-80, ix. doi: 10.1016/j.cpm.2008.05.005.

Abstract

The surgical repair of unstable midfoot and hindfoot deformities in the high-risk patient remains a challenge with little guidance available in the literature. The author presents a proposed surgical intervention for midfoot and hindfoot deformities utilizing a minimally invasive soft-tissue and osseous stabilization (MISOS) approach. The article presents a detailed, step-by-step description of the procedure used for these difficult limb salvage cases.
