  • endoscopic fusion of the accessory navicular Synchondrosis that has no diastasis
    Arthroscopy techniques, 2017
    Co-Authors: Tun Hing Lui
    Abstract:

    Accessory navicular bone is a common accessory ossicle of the foot and is present in 10% to 14% of normal feet. Less than 1% of the accessory navicular bones are symptomatic. Degenerative or traumatic disruption of the accessory navicular Synchondrosis is one of the main causes of symptomatic accessory navicular. The disrupted Synchondrosis may or may not be associated with diastasis of the Synchondrosis. Fusion of the Synchondrosis is indicated if the pain fails to respond to conservative measures. The purpose of this Technical Note is to describe a minimally invasive approach for fusion of the Synchondrosis that has no diastasis.

  • endoscopic accessory navicular Synchondrosis fusion
    Arthroscopy techniques, 2016
    Co-Authors: Tun Hing Lui
    Abstract:

    The accessory navicular bone is one of the most common accessory ossicles of the foot. Fewer than 1% of accessory navicular bones are symptomatic, and most of these are type II accessory navicular bones. A separation of the Synchondrosis is considered one of the main causes of pain. After an injury to the Synchondrosis has resulted in a chondro-osseous disruption, the combined forces of tension and shear from the posterior tibial tendon and the foot aggravate the injury and prevent it from healing. Fusion of the Synchondrosis is a logical surgical treatment option if the pain is recalcitrant to conservative measures. The purpose of this technical note is to report an endoscopic approach to achieve fusion. It has the advantages of better cosmesis, less scar pain, less risk of nonunion, and potential to examine the tibialis posterior tendon and the talonavicular joint.
