Journal ArticleDOI
The Role of Isolated Gastrocnemius and Combined Achilles Contractures in the Flatfoot
TL;DR: Higher levels of evidence are needed in the future to define more precisely the interplay between flatfoot deformity and gastrocnemius-soleus tightness.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evolution of the treatment options of ulnar collateral ligament injuries of the elbow
TL;DR: A comprehensive current review and comparative analysis of the present treatment options for UCL reconstruction, both non-operative and operative, as well as their respective results and biomechanical evaluation is provided.
Journal ArticleDOI
In vitro evaluation of the effect lateral process talar excision on ankle and subtalar joint stability.
Phillip Langer,Florian Nickisch,David B. Spenciner,Braden C. Fleming,Christopher W. DiGiovanni +4 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that excision of a 1 cm3 fragment causes neither ankle nor subtalar instability as defined by radiographic stress examination.
Journal ArticleDOI
Proximity of the lateral talar process to the lateral stabilizing ligaments of the ankle and subtalar joint.
TL;DR: Cadaver dissections identified that only three ligaments attach to the lateral process of the talus: lateral talocalcaneal, anterior talofibular, and posterior tal ofibular.
Journal ArticleDOI
The diagnostic value of MRI in foot and ankle surgery
TL;DR: Many of the pre-referral foot or ankle MRI scans obtained before evaluation by a foot and ankle specialist are not necessary, suggesting the rising accessibility of this test may be resulting in its overuse.
