Calcaneocuboid arthrodesis

Clin Podiatr Med Surg. 2012 Jan;29(1):77-89. doi: 10.1016/j.cpm.2011.11.002.

Abstract

The calcaneocuboid joint is stable, although multiple conditions might affect the joint, including arthritis, fracture, subluxation, and dislocation. Calcaneocuboid arthrodesis is more commonly performed as an adjunct procedure with other rearfoot procedures such as triple arthrodesis and is less used as isolated fusion. This article reviews the main conditions of the lateral column and calcaneocuboid joint in particular. The surgical technique for isolated calcaneocuboid arthrodesis is discussed.
