Correction of forefoot abduction in stage IIb adult acquired flatfoot likely depends on the amount lateral column lengthening (LCL) performed, although this represents only one aspect a successful reconstruction. The purpose study was to evaluate correlation between common reconstructive variables and observed change abduction.Forty-one patients who underwent reconstruction involving an Evans-type LCL were assessed retrospectively. Preoperative postoperative anteroposterior (AP) radiographs...
Previous work has demonstrated that the amount of radiographic hindfoot correction required at time adult-acquired flatfoot deformity (AAFD) operative treatment can be predicted by present before surgery. Successful outcomes after reconstruction are closely correlated with valgus correction. However, it is not clear if differences exist between clinical and assessment valgus. The purpose this study was to evaluate correlation evaluation alignment in patients stage II AAFD.Twenty-nine (30...
Background: The field of foot and ankle surgery lacks a widely accepted gold-standard patient-reported outcome instrument. With the changing infrastructure medical profession, more efficient tools are needed to reduce respondent burden increase participation while providing consistent reliable measurement across multiple pathologies disciplines. primary purpose present study was validate 3 Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System computer adaptive tests (CATs) most relevant...
Background: Obesity is a known risk factor for the development of adult acquired flatfoot deformity (AAFD), but obesity’s effects on outcomes following AAFD reconstruction are unknown. We hypothesized that obesity would negatively impact joint-preserving stage II reconstruction. Methods: This retrospective study compared normal-weight (18.5 kg/m 2 ≤ BMI < 25 ), overweight (25 30 and obese (BMI ≥ ) patients after Clinical outcome measures included Foot Ankle Outcome Score (FAOS),...
Skin and soft tissue infections (SSTIs) present with variable severity. The American Association for the Surgery of Trauma (AAST) developed an emergency general surgery (EGS) grading system several diseases. We aimed to determine whether AAST EGS grade corresponds key clinical outcomes.Single-institution retrospective review patients (≥18 years) admitted SSTI during 2012 2016 was performed. Patients surgical site or younger than 18 years were excluded. Laboratory Risk Indicator Necrotizing...
Glomus tumors are painful, benign neoplasms that frequently associated with delayed diagnosis. Commonly in the hand, they rarely present foot. The purpose of this case series is to characterize clinical presentation, radiology, pathology, and surgical outcomes foot glomus tumors. We reviewed our pathology database for patients diagnosed between 1995 2013. Medical records including physician notes, radiology were reviewed. Eleven had excised at institution during study period. mean age was...
Limited-open and percutaneous Achilles tendon (AT) repair techniques have limited visibility, which may result in sural nerve violation poor targeting. The goal of this study was to assess the vivo rotation AT its distance ruptured nonruptured ATs develop guidelines aid limited-open techniques.A retrospective review conducted identify magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies patients with healthy (nonruptured) ATs. anterior-posterior (A-P) medial-lateral (M-L) planes were measured at level...
Background: Routine histopathological examination has previously been scrutinized as a source of extraneous cost in orthopedic foot and ankle care. As an increasingly prevalent joint replacement operation, total poses notable to the health care market era containment. The purpose this study was compare costs benefits routine specimens removed during replacement. We hypothesized that new diagnosis would rarely be found such seldom alter patient Methods: A retrospective review conducted all...
Category: Hindfoot Introduction/Purpose: Previous work has demonstrated that the amount of radiographic hindfoot correction required at time adult acquired flatfoot deformity (AAFD) surgical treatment can be predicted by present before surgery. Successful outcomes after reconstruction are closely correlated with valgus correction. However, it is not clear if differences exist between clinical and assessment valgus. The purpose this study was to evaluate correlation evaluation alignment in...
Near‐peer teachers continue to be a significant driving force behind curricular changes that provide anatomy instruction meet the needs of students in current learning environment. teaching assistants (TAs) are important contributors facilitation Mayo Clinic School Medicine, course. The team‐based design this course incorporates various approaches team oriented activities, including introduction radiology and ultrasound education whole body dissections. TAs equally involved delivery briefing...
