Objective: Realignment of the hindfoot by talonavicular arthrodesis.

Indications: Idiopathic and posttraumatic arthritis of the talonavicular joint with or without malalignment. Optional in flatfoot reconstruction.

Background: The modified Lapidus arthrodesis is a standard procedure to correct middle to severe hallux valgus (HV) deformities. Recently, minimally invasive techniques of first metatarsocuneiform joint (MCJ) resection using a Shannon burr were described. The primary goal of this study is to compare the anatomical efficacy and safety of first MCJ resection using a straight 2 × 13-mm Shannon burr and minimally invasive technique (MIS) vs an open technique using an oscillating saw.

Background: Several studies demonstrated a considerable complication rate for open ankle or TTC arthrodesis in patients with diabetes, revision surgery and ulceration. Extensive approaches in combination with multimorbide patients have been suggested as the rationale behind the increased complication rate.

Methods: Single-centre, prospective case-control study compared arthroscopic vs.

Background: The simultaneous implantation of the Bonebridge (MED-EL, Innsbruck, Austria), a semi-implantable active transcutaneous bone conduction hearing device and anchors for auricular prostheses can be challenging as both implants contain magnets and compete for the narrow space in the designated implantation area.

Material And Methods: A preoperative planning tool (virtual surgery) was used with individual 3D computer models of the skull and implants for finding optimal implant positions for both the floating mass transducer (FMT) and the anchors for the auricular prosthesis. The interaction between the magnetic prosthesis anchors and the FMT was measured by means of static magnetic forces.
