Background

Until recently, surgical treatments for advanced ankle osteoarthritis have been limited to arthrodesis or ankle replacement. Supramalleolar osteotomy provides a joint-preserving option for patients with eccentric osteoarthritis of the ankle, particularly those with varus or valgus malalignment.

Aim

To evaluate radiological and functional outcomes of patients undergoing shortening supramalleolar osteotomy for eccentric (varus or valgus) osteoarthritis of the ankle.
