Learning Through Failure and the Way Forward

It is a big honor to be the guest editor for this issue of Foot and Ankle Clinics of North America. Being guest editor is harder than I ever thought and more rewarding than I could have ever imagined. Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Surgery has advanced dramatically over the last years, notably due to new procedures that have also given rise to new complex scenarios for revision surgery. The additional surgical demands presented by complex deformities after failed surgeries have stimulated the adage that “necessity is the mother of invention” Complex deformities are usually the result of complex cases with suboptimal results and are disheartening to surgeons and devastating for our patients.
