Case: We report 2 cases of severe arthrogrypotic clubfeet presenting with multiplanar ankle deformities. Two patients (3 ankles) were treated with deformity-correcting ankle fusions using 3D preoperative planning and 3D-printed patient-specific cut guides. This technique enabled safe, accurate, and efficient surgical correction with good clinical outcomes. At 1 year, physical function and patient outcome measures improved. Conclusion: In the setting of complex multiplanar deformities of the foot and ankle, the use of 3D preoperative planning and 3D-printed cut guides is a safe and accurate adjunct to ankle fusion.
