Midfoot osteotomies.

Abstract

Midfoot osteotomies are primarily used for reconstructive procedures for congenital or acquired deformities. Although used more in a younger population, they can used in most any patient population. With restoration of a more normal architecture, patients' symptoms resolve and prevention of long-term sequella can be avoided. Careful evaluation is necessary, but with proper use, midfoot osteotomies are useful procedures in the foot and ankle surgeons' repertoire.
