Abstract
Arthroscopic subtalar fusion is an excellent approach to subtalar pathologic condition where conservative treatment has failed and a fusion has been indicated. Formal contraindications include excessive malalignment and bone loss. The posterior arthroscopic approach is analyzed in this article, including indications, surgical technique, surgical tips, and complications. Excellent results can be expected, including a shorter time to fusion, and faster rehabilitation, including activities of daily living and sports.
