Résumé
The supramalleolar osteotomy (SMO) is a joint-preserving surgical procedure that allows realignment of the ankle joint in severe deformity secondary to arthritis. This osteotomy realigns the mechanical axis to provide better weight distribution through the ankle joint. With an aligned mechanical axis, the overloaded asymmetric ankle joint will shift toward the preserved joint area in a valgus or varus ankle joint. The SMO also can be used via a staged approach to correct severe deformity in an end-stage arthritic ankle before total ankle arthroplasty to optimize the implant's longevity and improve overall functional outcomes.
