ORTHOSPHERE® INTERPOSITIONAL ARTHROPLASTY IMPLANT postoperative COURSE The period of immobilization and protected weightbearing after interpositional arthroplasty is dictated by concomitant procedures (i.e. medial column arthrodesis). In the event that an isolated lateral column arthroplasty is performed, the patient is immobilized and instructed non-weightbearing for two weeks. They then progress to full weightbearing in a removable walker boot. An accommodative shoe with an arch support device is then utilized at six weeks. Postoperative x-rays show placement of implants | FIGURE 8A, 8B.
