PURPOSE: This study presents the short-term follow-up results from our case series of @entity1 with posteriorly localized @entity45 . @entity1 were treated via hindfoot endoscopy in the prone position. METHODS: We evaluated six ankles of five @entity1 treated with hindfoot endoscopy for @entity45 localized to the posterior portion of talus. Three @entity1 were @entity1 and two were @entity1 . The median age of the @entity1 was 34 (22-40) years. The bilateral case was treated with a sole operation. The median preoperative AOFAS score was 69 (38-72) points. Additionally, all @entity1 were found to have @entity1795 ( @entity1795 ) @entity924 in clinical and radiologic evaluations; large os trigoni were detected in five affected ankles. Debridement of scar tissue and @entity924 , resection of os trigoni, and curettage and grafting of the cysts were completed endoscopically with one surgery. The cavities were filled with autografts in all @entity1 except one. @entity692 was used in one case. The pathologic diagnoses were @entity2001 in three feet and simple @entity2001 in the remainder. The preoperative diagnoses were unchanged postoperatively. RESULTS: The median postoperative follow-up was 27 (12-74) months. In all @entity1 , graft union was confirmed with computed tomography. The median AOFAS score improved to 90 (75-100) points postoperatively. There were no complications. All @entity1 were satisfied with their results. CONCLUSION: Hindfoot endoscopy can be used for the treatment of @entity45 that are posteriorly localized. Significant advantages of this method include lower morbidity and shorter postoperative hospitalization time. Hindfoot endoscopy is a safe and effective method for treating @entity5409 and is an attractive option for experienced arthroscopic surgeons. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: IV.
