چکیده
Eleven patients were reviewed an average of 23 years after they had been treated by excision of a symptomatic calcaneonavicular bar in 16 of their feet. Of these feet 69% (11 feet) had a good or excellent result. Of the five failures, three feet had good results after subsequent triple arthrodesis, but two treated by repeated excision of the bar were still unsatisfactory. Beaking of the talus seen before operation correlated with poor results.
