pubmed:abstractText |
Obtaining adequate fixation during tibiotalocalcaneal (TTC) arthrodesis may be challenging. Various fixation constructs have been tested biomechanically, but the use of a locking plate has not been reported. We hypothesized that the locking plate with a TTC augmentation screw would provide structural rigidity comparable to that of the intramedullary (IM) nail with a TTC augmentation screw during dorsiflexion testing.
