'''Triple arthrodesis''' is a surgical procedure that involves the fusion of the three main joints in the hindfoot - the [[talonavicular joint]], the [[subtalar joint]], and the [[calcaneocuboid joint]]. This procedure is typically performed to relieve pain or correct deformities in the foot that have not responded to non-surgical treatments.

== Indications ==

Triple arthrodesis is indicated for a variety of conditions that affect the foot and ankle. These include:

* [[Rheumatoid arthritis]]

* [[Post-traumatic arthritis]]
* [[Flatfoot deformity]]
* [[Cavus foot deformity]]
* [[Tarsal coalition]]
* [[Neuromuscular disorders]]
* [[Clubfoot deformity]]

== Procedure ==

The procedure involves the removal of the articular cartilage from the three joints, followed by the placement of bone grafts to promote fusion. The foot is then immobilized in a cast for several weeks to allow the bones to heal and fuse together.

== Risks and Complications ==

As with any surgical procedure, there are risks associated with triple arthrodesis. These include:

* [[Infection]]
* [[Blood clots]]
* [[Nerve damage]]
* [[Nonunion (failure of the bones to fuse)]]
* [[Malalignment of the foot]]

== Recovery ==

Recovery from triple arthrodesis can take several months. Physical therapy is often recommended to help regain strength and mobility in the foot.
