In this issue of Clinics in Podiatric Medicine and Surgery, guest editors Drs. Thomas S. Roukis and Christopher Reeves bring their considerable expertise to the topic of Peri-Articular Osteotomies of the Foot and Ankle. Top experts discuss peri-articular osteotomies of the foot and ankle with a focus on their use in correcting midfoot, rearfoot, and ankle deformities. When appropriate, associated soft-tissue and tendon reconstruction and/or transfer are also presented.

Topics include: "Tenotomy and tendon transfer about the forefoot, midfoot and hindfoot", "Surgical correction of soft-tissue ankle equines contracture", "Percutaneous metatarsal osteotomies", "Minimum incision metatarsal amputations", "Soft-tissue and osseous techniques to balance forefoot and midfoot amputation", "Internal pedal amputations", "Minimally invasive percutaneous osteosynthesis (MIPO) technique for midfoot and hindfoot stabilization", "Corrective midfoot osteotomies", "Percutaneous fixation of forefoot and midfoot fracture dislocations", "Less invasive skeletal stabilization (LISS) for hindfoot and ankle fractures", "Percutaneous reduction and external fixation for foot and ankle fractures", and "Percutaneous bone marrow aspirate and bone graft harvesting techniques in the lower extremity".

This issue of Clinics in Podiatic Medicine and Surgery is the second of two dealing with Total Ankle Replacement, guest edited by Dr. Thomas Roukis. Article topics include: Modes of failure of current total ankle replacement systems, Peri-prosthetic aseptic osteolysis: cause and management, Revision of the infected total ankle replacement, Fusion following failed total ankle replacement, Tibiotalocalcaneal arthrodesis with retrograde intramedullary compression nail fixation for salvage of failed total ankle replacement: A systematic review, Management of the failed AgilityT ankle replacement, Management of the failed INBONET ankle replacement, and Outcomes following cyst curettage and bone grafting for the management of peri-prosthetic cystic changes after AEST Total Ankle Replacement.

Inspired by the highly esteemed Lowell Weil, Sr, DPM, and graduates of the Weil Foot & Ankle Institute, Tips and Tricks in Podiatric Surgery: The Foot and Ankle brings together a wealth of practical surgical guidance from fellowship trained foot and ankle surgeons in a highly readable, lavishly illustrated format. Brief chapters provide pearls for success, tips and tricks, and perils to avoid for both primary and revision surgeries. Edited by Drs. Thomas S. Roukis, John S. Anderson, Jeffrey R. Baker, Jarrett D. Cain, and Lowell Weil, Jr, this useful reference clearly demonstrates the “how-to” of every procedure highlighted by color photos and select videos for clear visual guidance. Contains 54 concise, well-illustrated chapters covering challenging surgical techniques and revision surgeries, as well as soft tissue concerns in the foot and ankle Covers a broad range of evidence-based procedures: traditional open, minimal incision, and percutaneous Shares the tips, tricks, pearls, and tried-and-true methods of global podiatric and orthopaedic surgeons who are recognized as experts in their particular area of foot and ankle surgery Ideal for both the experienced podiatric foot and ankle surgeon and those in training

Now in a fully revised and updated second edition, this definitive text provides comprehensive coverage of all aspects of total ankle replacement (TAR), written by authors who are recognized experts in the field. Though the main focus is on total ankle replacement prostheses available for use in North America, the lessons learned and presented here are applicable to the growing volume of cases worldwide. Divided into five thematic sections, each chapter is a purposeful mix of theory, data, and tips/pearls with detailed illustrations, tables, and references. Appropriately evidence-based, they include bullet points for quick reference and rely heavily on step-by-step intraoperative photographs and radiology. Part I presents the history of TAR, implant considerations (mobile-bearing vs. fixed-bearing), and indications/contraindications for the procedure. The subsequent three sections discuss all aspects of primary TAR, procedures secondary to primary TAR, and revision TAR, respectively, bringing together the most recent evidence, implant options and surgical techniques. The final section covers topics related to limb salvage after failed TAR, including preventive measures, wound healing, and infection management. Generously illustrated and well-referenced, Primary and Revision Total Ankle Replacement remains the gold standard text on this topic for orthopedic surgeons, podiatrists and foot and ankle clinicians at all levels.

Bringing together the most up-to-date information on all aspects of primary and revision total ankle replacement (TAR), this definitive text focuses on TAR procedures and  prostheses available for use in North America with additional “lessons learned” from the international community. The text is evidence-based, includes bullet points for quick reference, and is heavy on step-by-step photographs during surgery. Accordingly, the chapter content over four main sections is a purposeful mix of theory, data, and tips/pearls with detailed photographs, tables, and references. Section One provides an introduction to and history of TAR, including a discussion of fixed versus mobile bearings, TAR versus arthrodesis, and current indications and contraindications for primary TAR. Section Two focuses on primary TAR, covering a number of contemporary systems, such as INBONE, INFINITY, SALTO TALARIS and STAR. Secondary procedures with TAR comprise Section Three, including management of wound healingcomplications, soft tissue injuries, and varus and valgus malalignment. Section Four discusses revision TAR, covering topics such as infected replacements, component subsidence, and limb salvage as well as issues surrounding specific implant failures. Comprehensive yet practical, Primary and Revision Total Ankle Replacement will be the gold standard for books on this topic for many years to come and will provide invaluable instruction to orthopedic surgeons, podiatrists and foot and ankle clinicians worldwide.
