Аннотация

BACKGROUND: Hindfoot nails are being increasingly used, however significant complications can occur. The purpose of this study was to assess the complications following the use of hindfoot nails at our institution.

METHODS: We identified patients from a retrospective database. All underwent hindfoot nailing under the care of the senior author. Details of complications were recorded.

RESULTS: We identified 52 patients undergoing 55 procedures. Mean follow up was 44.8 months (18-69). Forty patients achieved ankle fusion and 36 subtalar joint fusion. Complications included prominent metalwork in 13 patients, CRPS in five and one peri-prosthetic fracture. Nine developed deep infection, and of these limb salvage was achieved in six patients by removal of metalwork, debridement and insertion of antibiotic loaded cement beads. The remaining three patients underwent below knee amputation.

CONCLUSION: Significant complications can occur, although limb preservation was possible in most cases of deep infection. Hindfoot nailing should be reserved as salvage procedure.
