THE LATE RESULTS OF ARTHRODESIS OF THE FOOT

A. J. Drew 1

1 Guy's Hospital, London, London, England

Our investigations have shown that the late results of tarsal arthrodesis are good. We have endeavoured to find the disadvantages and to stress residual symptoms, but the general mpression after seeing these patients is that they were all well satisfied with the result. We think it should be added that these patients were selected in so far as they were all operated upon by masters of operative technique who were acknowledged authorities in this particular subject. Without the careful attention to detail and to the points discussed, these operations can be dismal failures and a burden to the patients concerned.
