ABSTRACT
Artrorisi is a technique used to limit the range of movement in a joint. In the foot, it is used to block abnormal dorsiflexion (l~3). It is indicated for the treatment of paralytic calcaneal foot or the effects of hyperlengthening of the Achilles tendon after clubfoot correction. Although it is an uncommon procedure, it is useful for creating a stable, plantigrade foot in some patients. Artrorisi is used as an alternative to arthrodesis, which is a more drastic procedure.
