RÉSUMÉ
Isolated talonavicular arthrodesis is one of the surgical procedures for patients with talonavicular arthritis. However, the 3-dimensional kinematic behavior of the hip, knee, and foot/ankle complex during walking after the arthrodesis remains unclear. The clinical outcomes and gait analyses of 2 cases who underwent isolated arthrodesis for talonavicular osteoarthritis with chronic dislocated navicular fracture are presented. Gait analysis was carried out in both cases 1 year after surgery to clarify the side-to-side differences in the ranges of motion of the hip, knee, and foot/ankle complex during walking. Both cases showed good clinical results and radiographic bone union. The kinematic data of the gait analyses showed considerable restriction in the range of motion of the ankle in all 3-dimensional planes for the fused foot compared with the contralateral side. Additionally, hyperextension of the knee in the late stance of gait on the operated side was observed in both cases. When talonavicular arthrodesis was performed for talonavicular osteoarthritis with chronic dislocated navicular fracture, postoperative generalized stiffness of the ankle and future disorder of the knee should be considered.Levels of Evidence: Level V: Case report.
