Evaluation of Clinical Features and Surgical Outcomes of the Too Long Anterior Process in Children

• Conditions: Calcaneonavicular Coalition

• Registration Number: NCT04894942
• Lead Sponsor: University Hospital, Limoges

Brief Summary

Calcaneonavicular coalition represents approximately 1% of the population between 8 and 12 years. They are manifested by repeated ankle sprains or by pain. - The diagnosis is radiological on an X-ray of the foot in oblique-3/4 incidence as well as magnetic resonance imaging. Treatment is second-line surgery after failure of orthopedic treatment. This surgery is either by direct approach or by arthroscopy, by performing a bone resection to recreate sufficient space in the joint in question. The patients in this study will only be operated on openly.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Comparison of scores before surgery and after surgery at 3 months for all the operated patients	3 months	Calculation of the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society Score. This is an instrument for measuring the outcome of treatment in patients who sustained a complex ankle or hindfoot injury. It combines a clinician-reported and a patient-reported part.; The maximal score is 100 points, indicating no symptoms or impairments.
Comparison of scores before surgery and after surgery at 1 month, for all the operated patients	1 month	Calculation of the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society Score. This is an instrument for measuring the outcome of treatment in patients who sustained a complex ankle or hindfoot injury. It combines a clinician-reported and a patient-reported part.; The maximal score is 100 points, indicating no symptoms or impairments.
Comparison of scores before surgery and after surgery at 1 12 months for all the operated patients	12 months	Calculation of the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society Score. This is an instrument for measuring the outcome of treatment in patients who sustained a complex ankle or hindfoot injury. It combines a clinician-reported and a patient-reported part.; The maximal score is 100 points, indicating no symptoms or impairments.
