Anyone treated a "tarsal coalition" in their ankle?

Yes: It depends which bones are involved in the tarsal coalition. If it is the talonavicular joint, it involves surgery with a good recovery. If it is a talocalcaneal coalition, it is a more involved surgery with fusion of the ankle. Good luck.

No.: A tarsal coalition does not occur in the ankle. It is a bony "bridge" where a joint should be. It involves the tarsal joints of the foot, just below and distal to the ankle. Subtalar joint, talonavicular joint and others. Best diagnosed with ct scan. Depending on symptoms, treatment varies.

Yes: Tarsal coalitions occur between one of the joints below the true ankle joint (hind foot bones: talus, calcaneus, navicular and cuboid bones). It can be partial or complete, boney union or fibrous. In all cases it restricts the normal motion of the affected joint and does not need to be treated unless it hurts. Some coalitions can be resected in the young and if they are partial. Some may need fusion.
