Intraosseous cystic formation in the talus is a complication of subtalar joint arthroereisis
which has not been previously reported. The authors present a case whereby STA-peg
implants were utilized to correct a bilateral flatfoot deformity in an adolescent
girl. The surgical procedure was successful in treating the structural deformity of
the foot, however, the formation of talar cysts occurred. A review of the literature
and the treatment of this previously undescribed complication is presented.
