Calcaneo-stop procedure for flatfeet

Calcaneo-stop (or calcaneal stop) for flat feet in children, also known as arthroereisis or endorthesis, is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that aims to correct flat feet (and valgus feet) by limiting excessive pronation of the heel relative to the talus. This procedure involves inserting an implant into the tarsal sinus (in the talus, the heel, or the space between the talus and the heel), which helps lift the arch of the foot and realign the hindfoot. See the fact sheet “Flat feet: corrective surgery“. We perform regularly this procedure at OrthoChildren Center
