Patient outcomes were assessed through electronic surveys and telephone interviews. Primary outcome measures included mean changes in visual analog scale pain (VAS-Pain) scores and patient satisfaction via Likert scale. Secondary measures included VAS-Pain with the first 5 steps, VAS-Pain during daily weightbearing, and procedural complications.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Seventy unique procedures were identified among 62 patients. Follow-up data were obtained from 51 of 62 patients (82%) who responded to surveys or phone calls. This corresponded to 58 of 70 procedures (83%) at a mean postprocedure follow-up of 6.6\u2009\u00b1\u20091.4\u2009years. Patients had a mean duration of symptoms of 2.1\u2009\u00b1\u20093.0\u2009years prior to the procedure. Baseline VAS-Pain was 6.8\u2009\u00b1\u20092.2 and final follow-up VAS-Pain was 0.7\u2009\u00b1\u20091.1. At the last follow-up, patient-reported VAS-Pain with first 5 steps was 0.9\u2009\u00b1\u20091.6 and VAS-Pain with weightbearing through the day was 1.3\u2009\u00b1\u20091.8. Overall, 91% (53\/58) of the procedures were considered successful, where patients responded they were \u201csatisfied\u201d or \u201cvery satisfied\u201d and 52 of 58 (90%) procedural responses indicated that based on the outcome, they would recommend the procedure to others.
