Clinical Significance & Conclusions

• The results of the postoperative radiographic correction prove that transverse and sagittal plane normalization occurs. Since talotarsal motion is triplanar, correction of two of the three cardinal planes will result in triplane correction.

• EOTTS with HyProCure^® was effective in controlling motion in the desired planes without causing overcorrection or blocking in other planes.

• Stabilization of the TTM with HyProCure^® is effective in restoring the normal range of pronation and supination, which is essential for the reduction of strain and force on the soft tissues and osseous structures of the foot and ankle.
