Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

From the archives of the IRCCS Rizzoli Orthopedic Institute, all cases of arthrorrhesis of the subtalar joint with a reabsorbable endorthotic implant in PLLA will be retrieved. An overall electronic database will be created and all medical records of these cases will be reviewed.

The eligibility of each individual patient will be assessed on the basis of the exclusion and inclusion criteria (non-probability convenience sampling).

The study will not present a control group or comparison groups between therapeutic procedures.
