On June 2 Dr O'Carrigan presented a Webinar on the use of the Calcanail for subtalar joint fusion. Subtalar joint fusion is a common procedure to relieve pain from subtalar joint arthritis and is traditionally done with bone graft and screw fixation. There is a significant non union rate with this technique and Dr O'Carrigan presented his experience with use of the Calcanail to achieve union in these difficult cases. It was a well attended online event that generated robust discussion amongst the attendees.
