Average follow-up was 42 months; minimum follow-up was 24 months. The osteotomy was performed parallel to the subtalar joint through a lateral incision; the distal fragment was displaced > or = 50\% and transfixed with two parallel pins for approximately 4 weeks. Analysis of hindfoot stability, foot position, and extremity function yielded excellent (n = 17) or fair (n = 1) results. Varus overcorrection in the "fair" foot required a closing wedge osteotomy.
