    The Valente procedure offers improved subtalar arthroereisis for specific flatfoot deformities. Proper patient selection and technique are crucial for effectively treating painful flatfeet with this surgical option.

    Area of Science:

    • Orthopedic Surgery
    • Podiatric Medicine
    • Biomechanics

    Background:

    • Flatfoot deformity, particularly subtalar joint pathology, requires effective surgical management.
    • Subtalar arthroereisis aims to control pronation in specific types of pediatric and adult flatfoot.
    • The Valente procedure represents a technical refinement of earlier arthroereisis techniques.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe the technically improved Valente procedure for subtalar arthroereisis.
    • To outline patient selection criteria for optimal outcomes.
    • To detail operative technique and postoperative care guidelines.

    Main Methods:

    • The Valente procedure involves implant placement to limit excessive subtalar joint pronation.
    • Careful preoperative assessment is essential to differentiate suitable candidates from those requiring arthrodesis or osteotomy.

  • Implant selection must permit a degree of physiological pronation (3-4 degrees).

    • Main Results:

    • When indications are met, the Valente procedure is effective in treating painful flatfoot deformity.
    • Adherence to surgical guidelines minimizes complications such as sinus tarsitis or implant issues.
    • Proper implant choice and surgical execution are key to success.

    Conclusions:

    • The Valente procedure is an effective surgical option for selected cases of painful flatfoot with subtalar joint pathology.
    • Meticulous patient selection, surgical technique, and implant choice are paramount for successful outcomes.
    • Following established guidelines ensures the efficacy and safety of the Valente procedure in managing flatfoot deformity.
