Abstract Flatfoot deformity is characterized by loss of the medial longitudinal arch, forefoot abduction, hindfoot eversion, and often Achilles tendon contracture. Our objectives were to validate a cadaveric flatfoot model that involves selective ligament attenuation determine if overpull associated with increased pes planus severity. We measured three‐dimensional (3D) orientation bones interest in unloaded, loaded, conditions. A was created attenuating ligaments involved followed cyclic...
There exist varying reports in the literature regarding incidence of compartment syndrome (CS) after intramedullary (IM) fixation pediatric forearm fractures. A retrospective review experience with this treatment modality at our institution was performed to elucidate rate postoperative CS and identify risk factors for developing complication.In case series, we reviewed charts all patients treated operatively isolated radius ulnar shaft fractures from 2000 2009 identified 113 who underwent IM...
The medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) has been implicated as a common pain generator in adolescents with anterior knee pain. purpose of this study is to report the clinical outcomes arthroscopic lateral retinacular release (ALRR) for refractory MPFL-centered and identify risk factors poor surgical failures.A single-surgeon database was queried all patients undergoing ALRR. Inclusion criteria included minimum 12-month follow-up ALRR performed MPFL rather than generalized or patellar...
Context : Patients with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tears are likely to have deficient dynamic postural stability compared healthy sex- and age-matched controls. Objectives To test the hypothesis that patients undergoing ACL reconstruction decreased matched Design Prospective case-control study. Setting Orthopedic sports medicine physical therapy clinics. or Other Participants aged 20 years younger an tear scheduled for were enrolled prospectively. Controls recruited from local high...
<h3>Introduction</h3> Flatfoot deformity (pes planus) involves not only loss of the medial longitudinal arch foot, but is also characterized by forefoot abduction, hindfoot eversion, and possible Achilles tendon contracture. Most current cadaveric flatfoot models rely on substantial sectioning ligaments, which simulates complete rupture, to create deformity. We are unaware a model that has examined effects contracture flat foot. The objectives this study were develop validate new includes...
