AIM: The aim of this paper was to present application of the first expert arthrodesis nail in our clinic to a patient with previous performed arthrodesis according to Ulrich Holz.CASE REPORT: Patients A.M. on the age of 22 (1992) have a motor vehicle injury, (fall from a motor bike) with diagnosis polytrauma, shock, supra and transcondyar open fracture of the right femur III degree, open fracture of the right tibia and fibula. We perform reposition and fixation of supra and transcondyar femoral fracture with “cobra” plate. Also we perform reposition and fixation of right cruris with external fixation. After the operation we found fistula in the place of operation of the right crural regia. During the time the infection goes worse and the patient develop osteomyelittis on the right crural regia. After 5 months with therapy the situation become calm. We remove the external fixation. The patient develops severe “pes equinus” on the right leg and he cannot walk. We try to reduce this equines situation with elongation of the Achilles tendonin the first step, and because we didn’t solve the problem we continue with complete section of the Achilles tendon and after that we perform osteotomy of the right talocrural joint simultaneous to tibia plafond and talus and resection of fibula 2sm.above the syndesmosae tibiofibularis and we fixed the talocrural joint with two screws according the technique of Ulrich Holz.CONCLUSION: So we received fixed position on of the food on 110 degrees which was steel unacceptable for normal walking. At last we remove the screws, make once again osteotomy with positioning of the food in maximal dorsiflexion and perform the Experf Hindfood arthrodesis nail so with this method we achieve correction of dorsiflexion on 95 degrees, and the patient become satisfied because he can walk without support.
