Calcaneal osteotomy for hindfoot deformity

Percutaneous Calcaneal Osteotomy Combined With Arthroscopic Lateral Ankle Ligament Reconstruction for Chronic Ankle Instability With Hindfoot Varus

“… 2 Although this rate varies depending on the type of activity, there are also certain risk factors associated with this condition, such as hyperlaxity, static or dynamic postural control deficits, and especially, hindfoot varus. 1 , 2 , 3 The latter is found to be associated with CAI in 8% to 28% of the cases in the literature. 2 , 4 Classic treatment involves lateral ankle ligament anatomic reconstruction (LALAR).…”
