| dc.description | Congenital clubfoot is addressed in infancy and rarely persists into adulthood. Ankle arthroplasty is an increasingly popular surgical intervention for patients with ankle arthritis since it allows a natural ankle range of motion and completely replaces a degenerative hindfoot. Here, we describe the first successful total ankle arthroplasty (TAA) for a patient with previously treated congenital clubfoot that reverted later in life. To address the patient's poor soft-tissue integument and reduce the likelihood of post-surgical complications, a perioperative latissimus muscle-free flap was performed. This two-staged, novel orthoplastic intervention addressed our patient's ankle issues and appears to be a viable option for clubfoot patients. | |
