Combined Anterior and Posterior vs Isolated Posterior Facet Fixation for Subtalar Arthrodesis: A Proportional Meta-Analysis and Systematic Review of the Literature by Antonio Izzo MD, Giovanni Manzi MD, Martina D'Agostino MD, Massimo Mariconda MD, Shelain Patel FRCS (Tr&Orth), Alessio Bernasconi MD, PhD

“…Kernel regression suggested a correlation between the proportion of open/arthroscopic procedures and the nonunion rate (p=0.025) with a median nonunion rate at 10.9% and 5.9% for open and arthroscopic procedures, respectively. Mean CMS was 40.4 points (poor quality). Conclusion: This proportional meta-analysis suggested that a combined direct fixation of anterior and posterior facets during subtalar arthrodesis does not significantly influence the risk of nonunion nor affects the risk of complication and reoperation as compared to isolated posterior facet fixation.…”
