  Author(s): TIMOTHY K. SUMMERS*, DANIEL WARREN and JEFFERY BREWER
  
  Background: Tibotalocalcaneal arthrodesis is a salvage procedure reserved for severe tibiotalar and subtalar arthritis, hindfoot deformities, failed ankle arthroplasty, talar osteonecrosis, acute trauma, charco arthropathy, and other hindfoot pathologies. Multiple methods are described including intramedullary arthrodesis. We report the use of a long nail for concurrent tibial plateau and shaft fixation and hindfoot fusion in a neuropathic patient who experienced osseous failure at the level of ankle status-post index tibial nailing. Case Report: A 52-year-old, neuropathic female, previously treated with open reduction and intramedullary fixation for tibial plateau and tibial shaft fractures, respectively, experienced bony failure at the level of the ankle with hardware protrusion through the plafond, abutting the talus. Anterograde intramedullary fixation with an extended n.. Read More»
