Background: Hallux valgus is a common cause of pain and dysfunction the foot, sometimes requiring surgical correction when conservative measures fail. Although there are many methods correction, one newer techniques minimally invasive chevron-Akin (MICA). The aim current study to evaluate clinical radiographic effectiveness MICA narcotic use in large patient cohort. Methods: All patients this retrospective were treated by single fellowship-trained foot ankle orthopaedic surgeon. Patient...
The foot and ankle outcome score (FAOS) has been evaluated for many conditions of the ankle. We its construct validity in 136 patients with osteoarthritis ankle, content 37 responsiveness 39. Data were collected prospectively from registry at our institution. All FAOS subscales rated relevant by patients. Pain, Activities Daily Living, Quality Life showed good correlation Physical Component Short-Form-12v2. except Symptoms responsive to change after surgery. concluded that is a weak...
Background: Ultrasonography-guided alcohol injection (USGAI) of Morton’s neuroma represents an alternative to operative treatment. Nonetheless, the literature only reports few small studies evaluating effectiveness The aim present retrospective study was assess USGAI treat in 508 patients at 2 medical centers. Methods: Between January 2001 and 2012, with 540 had for neuroma. Only second third web-space neuromas were included this study. Results: A mean number 3.0 (range, 1 4) injections...
An association between hallux rigidus and metatarsus primus elevatus (MPE) has been suggested, although there remains no general consensus about the nature of this relationship. Past studies were limited due to inaccuracies assessing MPE on 2-dimensional radiographs. The aims study (1) assess compare foot alignment in patients with without using 3-dimensional (3D) reconstructions from weightbearing computed tomography (CT) (2) intraobserver interobserver reliability these measurements.A...
Surgical treatment of insertional Achilles tendinopathy (IAT) historically consists tendon debridement with reattachment and excision the posterosuperior calcaneal prominence or without a gastrocnemius recession. Zadek osteotomy (ZO) is an alternative to open midline splitting approach. The purpose this study was analyze patient-reported outcomes complications after percutaneously performed ZO minimum 2 years' follow-up.
Background: Limited literature is available to guide surgeons on which patients with insertional Achilles tendinopathy (IAT) may be the best candidates for minimally invasive dorsal closing wedge calcaneal Zadek osteotomy (MIS ZO). We hypothesized that severity of IAT preoperative magnetic resonance image (MRI) correlate post-operative functional outcomes and help patient selection treatment MIS ZO. Methods: Patients who underwent ZO ± Haglund deformity were identified retrospectively...
The rate of total ankle arthroplasty (TAA) is increasing in the United States as its popularity and indications expand. There currently no national joint registry available to monitor outcomes, few studies have addressed challenges faced with TAA. purpose this study was evaluate incidence, complications, survival rates associated TAA using a large statewide administrative discharge database. Individuals who underwent primary from 1997 2010 were identified Statewide Planning Research...
The most difficult aspect regarding treatment of the pediatric flatfoot is understanding who needs surgery, when it necessary, and what procedure to be done. A thorough history, clinical examination, imaging should performed guide surgeon through an often complex path. Surgical technique can divided in three categories: Soft tissue, bony, arthroereisis. This paper will describe joint preserving techniques their application treat deformity.
