Zusammenfassung

Die Tripelarthrodese ermöglicht die dreidimensionale (3D-)Korrektur schwerer Rückfußdeformitäten. Entscheidend sind die exakte Reposition und die stabile Osteosynthese. Wegen der Blockierung der Rückfußbewegung ist eine plantigrade Einstellung in allen 3 Ebenen anzustreben. Zusätzliche Deformitäten im Vorfuß sind gleichzeitig anzugehen. Die Operationstaktik unterscheidet sich beim Klumpfuß und beim Knickplattfuß. Das Risiko der langfristigen Entwicklung von Anschlussarthrosen ist abhängig von Vorschädigungen und dem Grad der Korrektur. Bei der Beurteilung der Ergebnisse ist der Ausgangsbefund wesentlich. Statische Kriterien sollten durch dynamisch-funktionelle ergänzt werden. Die Vergleichbarkeit von Literaturstudien ist wegen der unterschiedlichen Indikationsbereiche, Operationstechniken und Evaluationskriterien erschwert.

Die Ergebnisse der Tripelarthrodese sind bei primären Knickplattfüßen oder posttraumatischen Deformitäten weitaus besser als bei neurogenen Fehlstellungen oder angeborenen Klumpfüßen. Um den Wert der Methode besser abschätzen zu können, sollten künftige Studien auf die Durchmischung ihrer Kollektive verzichten.

Abstract

Triple arthrodesis can be used for a three-dimensional correction of all types of hindfoot deformities. Prerequisites are a functional integrity of the ankle joint and an adequate bone stock. The procedure blocks the cardanic mechanism of the hindfoot and therefore reduces the shock-absorbing and mobile-adaptive functions of the foot. This results in increased stresses with the risk of long-term degenerative changes.

In addition to triple arthrodesis, procedures to the forefoot are often necessary. Especially in neurogenic deformities, muscle lengthening and balancing procedures may be needed.

In the evaluation of the results, different etiologies (e.g. posttraumatic, degenerative, neurogenic, congenital) and different deformities (varus, valgus, cavovarus, equinus) should not be mixed up. The results in congenital and neurogenic deformities in the literature are inferior to those of degenerative and posttraumatic origin. A standardization of indications, techniques, and evaluation criteria is still needed in order to exactly estimate the value of this procedure for different pathologies.
