Part 3 (29 October 2018) – Aiming in Tibio-Calcaneal Fusion Using Fine Wire Frame

During the revision surgery 6.5mm cancellous cannulated screw was inserted paying significant attention to where it should be positioned. At this moment I am not aware of the best docking for the tibia – should it dock on calcaneum only or should it dock on calcaneum and navicular.

New foot plate was attached. The docking site was not addressed as per standard procedure.
