Sharing a case of adolescent guy 17-year-old with neglected
rigid flat deformity. On workup,
Dr. Motwani, foot and ankle specialist found
Talocalcaneal coalition with degeneration of subtalar and talonavicular joint with severe calcaneofibular impingement and osteochondral defect. He had severe pain on routine walking and couldn't manage his regular work. Multiple procedures mentioned in the images were used to preserve his ankle joint.
Dr. Girish Motwani, one of the best Foot and Ankle Orthopaedic surgeon through this wants to share that: Just try to rule out tarsal coalitions in any case of rigid flat foot deformity in younger patients.
