Flatfoot reconstruction effective for older patients, study finds

http://ift.tt/eA8V8J When someone develops adult-acquired flatfoot deformity, they are offered either a reconstruction or foot fusion depending on the severity of the flatfoot and their age. Typically reconstructions are performed in younger patients, while older patients undergo fusions, even though it can limit mobility. A new study has found that flatfoot reconstruction is effective for older patients.
