Abstract:
Objective To explore the clinic effect of arthroscopic in the treatment of Haglund deformity.Methods Sixteen patients with Haglund deformity were treated with arthroscopy from June 2009 to December 2011,including 7 males and 9 females,with an average age of 28.8 years (range,17-39 years).All 16 patients were suffered ankle back pain,exacerbations of pain during active and passive plantar flexion.This group of patients was chosen arthroscopic surgery to treat Haglund deformity as conservative treatment was invalid.With the prone position for surgery,we selected two approaches next to the Achilles tendon.Use the C-arm X-ray fluoroscopy observed calcaneus orthopedic during the operation.From the posteromedial approach to the posterolateral approach to alternately use the shaver and ArthroCare to clean up the front of the inflammation of the Achilles tendon bursa,by which could form arthroscopic operations security zone.All operating equipment was on the back toward the Achilles tendon,which could maximize the protection Achilles tendon.Postoperative plaster or brace short brake was used for two weeks.16 cases of postoperative patients were followed up； the mean follow-up time was 13 months (9-18 months).According pain visual analogue scale (VAS) and the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle (AOFAS),the clinic effects were evaluated.Results At the last follow-up,the AOFAS hindfoot score of 91.5±2.8 was significantly higher than the preoperative 71.0±3.7 (t=17.38,P=0.014),postoperative VAS score 1.3±0.6 was significantly lower than the preoperative 5.10±0.44 (t=19.20,P=0.022).Conclusion The treatment of Haglund deformity by means of arthroscopic minimally invasive,with smaller trauma,faster recovery and lower complications,is effective and safe in clinical practice.However,dues to its steep learning curve,this method requires doctors to carry out who had relatively large arthroscopic surgery experience.
