Abstract
This article has reviewed the alignment of the ankle and hindfoot in varus ankle osteoarthritis. The indication and surgical technique of the supramalleolar osteotomy has been reviewed. Alignment of tibial plafond and hindfoot is variable in early stages of ankle osteoarthritis. Supramalleolar osteotomy is indicated for the treatment of ankle osteoarthritis in patients with minimal talar tilt and neutral or varus heel alignment.
