Background Meniscoid lesions have been reported in patients with chronic ankle injuries, especially in soccer athletes, and such lesions cause soft-tissue impingement and pain. To our knowledge, we are the first to report a meniscoid lesion in the ankle joint presenting as a long-term sequela of avascular necrosis of the talus that developed in chi...

PURPOSE: Open talus fractures are notoriously difficult to manage, and they are commonly associated with a high level of complications including non-union, avascular necrosis and infection. Currently, the management of such injuries is based upon BOAST 4 guidelines although there is no suggested definitive management, and thus, definitive managemen...

BackgroundTraditional medial malleolar osteotomy combined with autologous osteochondral transplantation (AOT) is mostly used in the treatment of osteochondral lesions of the talus (OLTs), but with high osteotomy and donor site complications. We hypothesis a new triplane medial malleolar osteotomy combined with AOT from non-weight-bearing area of th...

Category: Hindfoot; Ankle Introduction/Purpose: Talar ANV, trauma, and implant failure or collapse after TAR are major challenges in foot and ankle surgery. Custom total talar implants are a promising option for such conditions and have shown promising results. However, there are no biomechanical studies examining the kinematics of total talus impl...

Category: Hindfoot; Ankle Introduction/Purpose: Total talus replacement (TTR) has emerged as a novel treatment for talar avascular necrosis and severe trauma to the talus. Despite TTR first being described over 35 years ago, many questions still remain regarding the procedure. The objective of this study was to summarize the evidence on third-gener...
