| description | Introduction
The Zadek Osteotomy has been described as an effective technique for the treatment of insertional Achilles tendinopathy. Recently, this strategy has been modified using minimally invasive techniques. A learning curve has been observed in many minimally invasive procedures in foot and ankle surgery. This retrospective study first intended to evaluate if there is a learning curve associated with the percutaneous Zadek Osteotomy. Further, if a learning curve was observed, we planned to assess the data for associated changes in complications and postoperative outcomes.
Methods
A retrospective analysis of 98 patients who underwent percutaneous Zadek Osteotomy was performed. Patient charts were reviewed for operative times, complications, union rates, and Foot Function Index (FFI) and Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) scores. Analysis of variance was utilized to assess for differences between groups of cases.
Results
Patients included 61 females and 37 males. Mean age was 51.28 ± 11.12 (range 28–81) years. Mean follow-up time was 42.07 ± 12.99 (range 24–65) months. Significant increases in operative times were observed in cases 1–14 when compared to cases 15–98 (

The Zadek Osteotomy has been described as an effective technique for the treatment of insertional Achilles tendinopathy. Recently, this strategy has been modified using minimally invasive techniques. A learning curve has been observed in many minimally invasive procedures in foot and ankle surgery. This retrospective study first intended to evaluate if there is a learning curve associated with the percutaneous Zadek Osteotomy. Further, if a learning curve was observed, we planned to assess the data for associated changes in complications and postoperative outcomes.
Methods
A retrospective analysis of 98 patients who underwent percutaneous Zadek Osteotomy was performed. Patient charts were reviewed for operative times, complications, union rates, and Foot Function Index (FFI) and Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) scores. Analysis of variance was utilized to assess for differences between groups of cases.
Results
Patients included 61 females and 37 males. Mean age was 51.28 ± 11.12 (range 28–81) years. Mean follow-up time was 42.07 ± 12.99 (range 24–65) months. Significant increases in operative times were observed in cases 1–14 when compared to cases 15–98 (
p
< 0.001). Improvements in FFI and VAS scores were observed at final follow-up within each case group (
p
< 0.001); there were no differences detected in FFI or VAS scores between groups of cases. There was no difference detected in number of complications between intervals of cases.
Conclusion
A learning curve was observed for the percutaneous Zadek Osteotomy, which was overcome around case 14. This learning curve was only observed in terms of procedure length. A surgeon’s level of inexperience with the technique does not appear to affect functional outcomes, nonunion, or need for revision.
