Isokinetic Plantar Flexion Torque Increases after Open Gastrocnemius Recession
The amount of force developed by a muscle is related to many factors including where the muscle operates on its length-tension curve. It is well documented that placing the triceps surae muscle group in a lengthened state (i.e.: near maximal dorsiflexion) elicits maximum plantar flexion torque [1, 2]. Isolated gastrocnemius contracture (IGC) is characterized by limited dorsiflexion with the kne...
متن کاملGastrocnemius 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...
متن کاملPlantar fasciitis.
Hallux rigidus is a “stiff big toe joint”. Patients with this condition, which is a form of arthritis, often report that it feels as if they have to force their big toe to bend at the joint when “toeing off” from the ground while walking. Often times, hallux rigidus results in the joint becoming completely rigid. Movement of the big toe joint occurs typically in an up and down plane only. The u...
