Plantar pressure displacement after anesthetic motor block and tibial nerve neurotomy in spastic equinovarus foot.
The aim of this study was to analyze the displacements of center of pressure (COP) using an in-shoe recording system (F-Scan) before and after motor nerve block and neurotomy of the tibial nerve in spastic equinovarus foot. Thirty-nine patients (age 45 ± 15 yr) underwent a motor nerve block; 16 (age 38 ± 15.2 yr) had tibial neurotomy, combined with tendinous surgery (n = 9). The displacement of...
متن کاملDoes fascicular neurotomy have long-lasting effects?
OBJECTIVE To determine whether fascicular neurotomy has long-lasting effects on spasticity. DESIGN We present 4 clinical cases and a critical analysis of the literature. PATIENTS This is a retrospective study on 4 patients referred to our department for spastic equinovarus foot deformity. For all 4, neurotomy was successful not long after surgery, but spasticity reappeared after a few month...

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...
متن کاملRadial Optic Neurotomy for Central Retinal Vein Occlusion
PURPOSE Surgical decompression of the vein in central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO) by radial optic neurotomy (RON) was recently proposed as being surgically feasible, safe, and beneficial. The effect of RON on the visual field has not been systematically reported, although possible visual field defects are expected due to iatrogenic cutting of the optic nerve fibers. The authors report the res...
متن کاملRadial Optic Neurotomy: A New Surgical Approach for Glaucoma Treatment?
Glaucoma is a leading cause of blindness worldwide, characterised by specific visual field defects due to the degeneration of retinal ganglion cells and damage to the optic nerve head (ONH). Elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) is the most important risk factor for glaucoma development. One of the clinical hallmarks of glaucomatous optic neuropathy is the excavation of the ONH, which consists of...
