Synthes tubular external fixation system for isolated subtalar arthrodesis

Jesse B Burks et al. Clin Podiatr Med Surg. 2003 Jan.

Abstract

The authors present the use of the AO/ASIF tubular system for isolated subtalar arthrodesis. Internal and external fixation are both acceptable means of promoting successful arthrodesis. Appropriate patient selection is vital when considering external fixation. Indications, operative technique, and a discussion are included as well as two case studies.
