Dr. Edward Hellman answered

Specializes in Orthopedic Surgery

Repeat fusion: There is a joint between your talus and navicular bones in which there is normally motion. A fusion is done to try to permanently eliminate motion in that joint, usually with the goal of improving pain. Revision suggests the surgery was done before and was unsuccessful, requiring another surgery.
