Talocalcaneal coalitions present with complaints of flatfeet, foot or ankle pain after minor injury, or recurrent ankle sprains. Physical examination findings include limited subtalar motion and prominence inferior to the medial malleolus. Use of computed topography (CT) scan is recommended for preoperative planning. Confirmation of resection with intraoperative CT. Resection of talocalcaneal coalitions with fat-graft interposition has superior results to primary arthrodesis. Improved outcomes have been reported after resection, with foot scores averaging 90/100 (AOFAS).
