Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Podiatry

Background:

  • Flexible flatfoot deformity requires careful surgical consideration.
  • Medial column stabilization is a recognized component in managing complex foot deformities.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review medial column stabilizing procedures for foot deformities.
  • To emphasize the role of medial column stabilization in flexible flatfoot management.

Main Methods:

  • Review of existing literature on medial column stabilizing procedures.
  • Discussion of various surgical techniques for different deformities.

Main Results:

  • Medial column stabilization should not be performed in isolation for flexible flatfoot.
  • It is an adjunct procedure, requiring thorough preoperative assessment.

  • Conservative treatments must be exhausted prior to surgical intervention.
  • Conclusions:

    • Medial column stabilization is an effective procedure for end-stage degenerative joint disease of the medial longitudinal arch.
    • Surgical criteria for flexible flatfoot include severe deformity, inability to wear shoes, and persistent pain despite conservative care.
