Surgical Treatment of Severe Idiopathic Flexible Flatfoot by Evans–Mosca Technique in Adolescent Patients: A Long-Term Follow-Up Study

Figure 2

Same patient of Figure 1, three years later. The patient was surgically treated by Evans–Mosca procedure bilaterally with an interval of six months. The radiographic examination of the left foot, performed in oblique view 3 months after surgery, showed good lengthening of the calcaneus with the presence of the tricortical bone graft (a). At an intermediate follow-up, 7 years later, the graft was perfectly remodeled in the calcaneal bone with the maintenance of calcaneal lengthening and without any sign of osteoarthritis of the calcaneocudoid joint (b).
