Arthroscopy-assisted Minimally Invasive Tarsometatarsal and Lisfranc Arthrodesis. A Case Series
Bibliographic record
Abstract
BACKGROUND: First tarsometatarsal arthrodesis is an effective procedure for the correction of hallux valgus deformities. Traditionally, first to third tarsometatarsal and Lisfranc arthrodesis is performed via an open approach. Little is known about the role of combined arthroscopic and minimally invasive techniques. MATERIAL AND METHODS: We present a case series of complicated hallux valgus deformities and other conditions managed using arthroscopically assisted minimally invasive arthrodesis. We first performed a minimally invasive surgical procedure that allowed easy and unhindered access for the introduction of an arthroscopic instrument over the joint surface. RESULTS: The mean Visual Analogue Score - Foot and Ankle and Short Form-36 scores indicated satisfactory and acceptable postoperative outcomes, respectively. The mean patient satisfaction score was 94.44 and the mean follow-up duration was approximately 17.7 months. CONCLUSION: The described procedure has been preliminarily shown to be useful in terms of its minimal invasiveness, reproducibility, safety, and effectiveness.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
