Ipsilateral Tibiotalar Joint Osteoarthritis Transferred to the Contralateral Tibiotalar Joint.
Classically, it is thought that pain or disability in one leg can stress the contralateral leg, leading to similar symptoms. The mechanism of action for subsequent dysfunction in the healthy limb is thought to involve compensatory changes that are used as a means to reduce stance phase time on the injured limb. This is believed to increase the forces distributed across the healthy limb, ultimat...
متن کاملDistal fibula malunions.
Anatomic reduction and fixation of unstable ankle fractures is necessary to prevent posttraumatic arthritis. Malunion of the distal fibula in unstable ankle fractures may lead to progressive talar instability. Ankle fracture malunions often present with concomitant syndesmotic widening, which can cause surgeons to overlook changes in fibula length and rotation. The decision to proceed with surg...
متن کاملOverview of Distal First Metatarsal Osteotomies
In 1881, Reverdin described a closing wedge osteotomy of the first metatarsal head with the apex laterally that also included excision of the medial eminence (Fig. 11-1A). His purpose was to realign the abducted hallux and remove the prominent bump. The procedure effectively reduces an abnormal proximal articular set angle but does not directly address the intermetatarsal angle. Since the time ...
متن کاملContact areas of the tibiotalar joint.
The contact areas between the articular surfaces of the talus and tibia are essential for understanding the mobility of the ankle joint. The purpose of our study was to reveal the contact area among the superior articular surface of the trochlea tali (target surface T) and the inferior articular surface of the tibia (query surface Q) under non-weight-bearing conditions in plantar flexion and do...
متن کاملCyclic pneumatic soft-tissue compression accelerates the union of distal radial osteotomies in an ovine model.
The aim of this randomised, controlled in vivo study in an ovine model was to investigate the effect of cyclic pneumatic pressure on fracture healing. We performed a transverse osteotomy of the right radius in 37 sheep. They were randomised to a control group or a treatment group where they received cyclic loading of the osteotomy by the application of a pressure cuff around the muscles of the ...
