Resumen de Surgical Correction of Midfoot Arthritis With and Without Deformity

Alan J. Zonno, Mark S. Myerson

• The goals of midfoot reconstruction are to create a painless, functional, and plantigrade foot, which are generally accomplished with arthrodesis and realignment as indicated. The latter requires not only the correction of midfoot deformity when present, but also coexisting hindfoot and forefoot deformities. Once the initial decisions have been made regarding the need for realignment and which joints to include in the arthrodesis, the surgical plan needs to account for the approach, arthrodesis preparation, order of fixation, and choice of fixation.
