Arthroscopic hindfoot fusion!
Patient has increased BMI, uncontrolled diabetes, and severe peripheral neuropathy, with an open ankle fracture.

Given their risk factors for wound issues and nonunion, we planned for a primary hindfoot fusion to more reliably give the patient a stable leg and ideally avoid amputation in the future. We do the joint prep arthroscopically to keep incisions small and preserve blood supply.

1/2 - injury films
3/4/5 - arthroscopic joint prep
6 - reduction XR
7/8 - final fluoro shots

AOAO 2021! Great time to learn and reconnect with some of my best friends! Conference peaked early with the foot and ankle session 🦶🏼

Dadurday!

Difficult to convey how stoked I am as a child of the 80’s-90’s to see my kids watching and loving DuckTales 😁😁😁

Lasers, race cars, aero-planes… it’s a duck blur!

Have a great weekend everyone!
