Gastrocnemius recession to treat isolated foot pain.
BACKGROUND Gastrocnemius recession is performed to correct an isolated gastrocnemius equinus contracture of the ankle that may accompany foot and ankle pathology in the adult. It has been proposed that this equinus deformity leads to excessive strain throughout the foot, thus causing pain. This can manifest itself in the form of plantar fasciitis, metatarsalgia, posterior tibial tendon insuffic...

Tria (eds.), Minimally Invasive Surgery in Orthopedics: Foot and Ankle Handbook, DOI 10.1007/978-1-4614-0893-2_2, © Springer Science+Business Media, LLC 2012 Percutaneous techniques are becoming popular for treating many musculoskeletal conditions. Those developed for endoscopic carpal tunnel and plantar fascial release are currently among the most common. The reported ben...
متن کاملEndoscopic Gastrocnemius Recession (egr) Technique
Equinus is probably the most unrecognized, and untreated pathological condition affecting the human lower extremity. Numerous forefoot pathological symptoms are attributed to its devastating biomechanical forces, yet there is a large segment of foot and ankle surgeons who simply do not address the condition concurrently with other surgical intervention. It is the author’s opinion this relegatio...

متن کاملBiomechanical characterization and clinical implications of artificially induced toe-walking: differences between pure soleus, pure gastrocnemius and combination of soleus and gastrocnemius contractures.
The purpose of this study was to characterize biomechanically three different toe-walking gait patterns, artificially induced in six neurologically intact subjects and to compare them to selected cases of pathological toe-walking. The subjects, equipped with lightweight mechanical exoskeleton with elastic ropes attached to the left leg's heel on one end and on shank and thigh on the other end i...
