Return to physical activity after gastrocnemius recession
AIM To prospectively investigate the time taken and patients' ability to resume preoperative level of physical activity after gastrocnemius recession. METHODS Endoscopic gastrocnemius recession (EGR) was performed on 48 feet in 46 consecutive sportspersons, with a minimum follow-up of 24 mo. The Halasi Ankle Activity Score was used to quantify the level of physical activity. Time taken to ret...

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 کاملIsokinetic 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 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...
