Calcaneonavicular bar resection offers satisfactory outcomes for most patients. However, inadequate resection can lead to recurrence, and preoperative rearfoot degeneration impacts results.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic surgery
  • Foot and ankle reconstruction
  • Biomechanical analysis

Background:

  • Calcaneonavicular bars can cause foot pain and functional limitations.
  • Surgical resection is a common treatment for symptomatic bars.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the long-term outcomes of calcaneonavicular bar resection.
  • To identify factors influencing surgical success and recurrence.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective review of 14 patients (16 feet) undergoing calcaneonavicular bar resection.
  • Average follow-up of 4.5 years with subjective and objective assessments.

Main Results:

  • 75% of cases (12 feet) achieved satisfactory outcomes.
  • Preoperative rearfoot degenerative changes correlated with poor results.

Related Experiment Videos

  • Inadequate resection was linked to bar recurrence in all cases.
  • Ossification status of the bar did not affect outcomes.

    • Conclusions:

    • Calcaneonavicular bar resection can yield good results.
    • Thorough resection is crucial to prevent recurrence.
    • Preexisting rearfoot degeneration is a negative prognostic factor.
