Flat Foot, Lateral Column Lengthening, Medial Cuneiform Osteotomy
Conditions
Keywords
titanium wedge, Evans, Cotton
Brief summary
Evaluate clinical healing and radiographic maintenance of correction following an LCL procedure or medial cuneiform osteotomy (Cotton) at 6 months following the use of the TITAN 3-D™ Wedge. Subjects who receive one or more TITAN 3-D™ Wedges will obtain satisfactory levels of clinical healing and radiographic maintenance of correction at 6 months.
Interventions
Each subject will undergo an LCL procedure and/or medial cuneiform osteotomy with one or more TITAN 3-D™ Wedges. Ancillary fixation should be used in conjunction with each TITAN 3-D™ Wedge used. This surgical procedure will be performed as standard of care and is not part of the research procedures. Post-operative care and weight-bearing/activity restrictions will be at the discretion of the surgeon as part of their standard of care for the procedure.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Clinical Healing | 6 Months | Evaluate clinical healing following an LCL procedure or medial cuneiform osteotomy (Cotton) at 6 months following the use of the TITAN 3-D™ Wedge. Clinical healing is defined as lack of pain over the osteotomy site. |
| Radiographic Maintenance of Correction | 6 Months | Evaluate radiographic maintenance of correction following an LCL procedure or medial cuneiform osteotomy (Cotton) at 6 months following the use of the TITAN 3-D™ Wedge. Radiographic maintenance of correction is defined as the absence of a clinically relevant change in radiographic measures across post-operative time points. |
