Abstract

A literature review is presented about triple arthrodesis and Lambrinudi arthrodesis including indications, techniques, complications, and a more extensive review of some specific indications. Forty-eight patients were operated on between 1961 and 1977, 25 of whom were reviewed at follow-up. Our follow-up study shows a rather high rate of pseudarthrosis, with however a normal failure rate. According to these findings transfixation of the bones with K-wires is to be considered.
