Sometimes unusual stories walk in/limp in.
This 50 yo male was referred from another facility a couple hours away. 30 years ago he sustained shotgun blast to the leg. He went to the Detroit trauma center, and with free flaps, external fixation (6+ months), extensive inpatient care, and an ankle fusion he was able to salvage his leg, and ankle with a little stiffness, and jewelry to show off.
He came to us with painful STJ motion, and a lack there of.
Really straight forward case with the exception of going medial to stay out of his flaps laterally.
This worked well thankfully, and thus far his skin is healing beautifully.
