Foot and ankle complaints are commonly encountered in orthopedic practice. Midfoot arthritis has the potential to cause a significant amount of pain and disability. A variety of conditions can cause or lead to midfoot arthritis. Treatment consists of either conservative management or surgical arthrodesis of the painful joints. In this article, we review the midfoot (its basic anatomy and biomechanics) and midfoot arthritis (its clinical presentation and etiology, radiographic evaluation, and treatment options).
