Hindfoot arthrodeses.
In summary then, pain is the primary indication for a hindfoot arthrodesis procedure. Arthrodesis is performed only on those joints that show degeneration or significant deformity. Finally, the technique described uses a moldable bone graft. This technique is applicable both for an isolated talocalcaneal joint arthrodesis and for triple arthrodeses.
