The purpose of this retrospective study was to determine long-term functional outcomes and device tolerance achieved in adult patients who chose to undergo an extraosseous talotarsal stabilization procedure HyProCure(®) for the treatment of flexible talotarsal joint deformity. Eighty-three adult patients participated in this study. Postoperative subjective assessment of device performance was evaluated using Maryland Foot Scores, which were collected at a mean follow-up period of 51 months. The mean postoperative Maryland Foot Score was 88 out of 100; postoperatively, 52% of cases reported complete alleviation of foot pain, 69% of cases had no limitations on their foot functional abilities, and 80% of cases reported complete satisfaction with the appearance of their feet. The implant was removed in 7 out of 117 cases (removal rate: 6%) due to prolonged pain of the anterior talofibular ligament (4 cases), psychogenic reaction (2 cases), and postoperative infection (1 case). The long-term positive subjective outcomes and excellent patient satisfaction obtained in this study may imply that extraosseous talotarsal stabilization was effective in stabilizing the talotarsal joint complex and eliminating excessive abnormal pronation, thus reducing pain and improving quality of life of the patients; it represents a possible treatment option for partial talotarsal dislocation in cases with flexible and reducible deformity.

Background: There is a high correlation between hallux valgus and pes planus deformity. We sought to evaluate the outcomes of simultaneous Scarf osteotomy and extraosseous talotarsal stabilization (EOTTS) for correcting adult hallux valgus with flexible pes planus deformity.
Materials And Methods: This retrospective study enrolled patients who had hallux valgus deformity with flexible pes planus and underwent combined Scarf osteotomy and EOTTS from January 2018 to October 2021.

BACKGROUND In the treatment of pes planus, if the implant does not match the anatomical structures of the sinus tarsi, synovitis can develop, causing pain symptoms. In the interest of making clinical recommendations for extra-osseous talotarsal stabilization, the goal of the present study was to characterize the anatomical characteristics of the sinus tarsi in patients with pes planus using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans. MATERIAL AND METHODS This was a retrospective study involving 56 pes planus patients and 56 healthy volunteers from January 2014 to May 2022.

Background: The partial dislocation of the talus from the calcaneus and navicular bones is a primary factor leading to a prolonged overpronation during weightbearing. This study aimed to assess the possibility of returning to physical activity and long-term patient satisfaction after an extra-osseous talotarsal stabilization (EOTTS) procedure with a HyProCure sinus tarsi implant for partial talotarsal joint dislocation (TTJ).
Methods: A total of 41 adult patients (61 feet), with an average age of 46.
Collapsing foot deformity (CFD) and its resulting sequelae caused by recurring talotarsal joint dislocation (RTTJD) affects pediatric and adult patients. An extraosseous talotarsal stabilization (EOTTS) procedure, a subset of subtalar arthroereisis (SA) procedures, is recommended as a minimally invasive, first in-line surgical treatment option for CFD. The aim of this multicenter, retrospective study was to evaluate patient-reported outcomes measures in patients who were treated for RTTJD with Type II EOTTS implants.

The aim is to present a single-center case series of patients with symptomatic hyperpronated feet treated with arthroereisis by using a second generation extra-osseous talo-tarsal stabilization device. This case series enrolled 123 feet in 87 patients (20 [6-75] years) treated with arthroereisis, either isolated (76 cases) or combined procedure (47 cases). At their final follow-up, a patient reported questionnaire (overall satisfaction, foot stability and shape, activities of daily living, pain level, and analgesics usage) was distributed.
