Subtalar Arthroereisis Implantation in Acquired Neuropathic Pes Planus: A Preliminary Report Detailing a Minimally Invasive Approach to Healing Medial Column Ulcerations.

Ulcerations under the medial column in patients with acquired neuropathic pes planus may be intractable to conservative techniques such as regular debridement, offloading, bracing, and accommodative shoes. When surgery becomes necessary for these patients, the foot and ankle surgeon has the option of exostectomy, medial column beaming, medial column fusion, and external fixation, among others. In the case of a flexible midfoot collapse, the option of arthroereisis for indirect medial column support may be warranted.
