Sonographically Guided Posterior Subtalar Joint Injections via the Sinus Tarsi Approach
Abstract
OBJECTIVES: To determine the feasibility and accuracy of sonographically guided posterior subtalar joint (PSTJ) injections performed through the sinus tarsi.
METHODS: A single experienced operator completed 10 sonographically guided PSTJ injections via the sinus tarsi on 10 unembalmed cadaveric ankle-foot specimens. Injections were performed using a 17-5-MHz linear transducer, a 25-gauge, 50-mm needle, and an out-of-plane, anterior-to-posterior …
