Diagnosis is made clinically with presence of spasticity/contracture of the gastrocsoleus complex in equinus, presence of a spastic hallux valgus, and supination deformities of the midfoot and forefoot. Posterior hindfoot impingement most commonly occurs in middle-aged and older individuals with a chronic hindfoot valgus deformity. Inflammatory arthritis not only causes pain, but also causes the foot to change shape and become flat. A triple arthrodesis is a fusion in the hindfoot (back of the foot) used to treat many types of painful foot deformities.

The arthritis can affect the back of the foot or the middle of foot, both of which can result in a fallen arch. Ankle arthrodesis is the fusion of the tibiotalar joint most commonly performed for end-stage arthritis of the joint. From a dorsoplantar vantage point, this results in a greater angle between the mid-calcaneal and mid-talar axes. The hindfoot is the portion of the foot that extends from below the ankle to above the Chopart joint. In all flatfeet, we found an increased tibiocalcaneal angle. 2010 Jun;29(6):593-7.
