چکیده

Arthroereisis is a rare and disputed procedure, where an implant screw is inserted into the sinus tarsi to treat flatfoot deformity. Weight-bearing radiographs are the most essential examinations to assess the correct localization and related measurements. Hardware loosening is the most common complication seen as localized lucency and as dislocation of the implant. Computed tomography yields superior resolution with reconstruction capabilities. On magnetic resonance imaging, the implant appears as a dark signal focus on T1 and T2-weighted images with a hyperintense T2-signal rim. As the data on the imaging of arthroereisis are scarce, we aimed here to review the typical imaging findings.

Complications following correction of the planovalgus foot in cerebral palsy by arthroereisis.

Pes valgus is a pathological condition which occurs in up to 25% of patients with cerebral palsy. Its correction in early age is essential to prevent progression of the deformity and to optimize the patient's function. In younger patients arthroereisis can be considered as a treatment that fills the void between orthotics and arthrodesis. We treated 15 patients (27 feet) with intra- or extra-si...

Differences in pediatric vertical ground reaction force between planovalgus and neutrally aligned feet.

Ground reaction forces (GRF) reflect the force history of human body contact with the ground. The purpose of this study was to explore human gait abnormalities due to planovalgus by comparing vertical GRF data between individuals with planovalgus and those with neutrally aligned feet. Second we estimated associations between various measurements and vertical GRF parameters in a pediatric popula...

Multi-segment Kinematic and Kinetic Foot Model Outcomes for Planovalgus Feet

INTRODUCTION Planovalgus (PV), a combination of pes planus (flat foot) and hindfoot eversion (valgus), is the most common foot deformity in ambulatory cerebral palsy (CP) patients and accounts for between 25-30% of all surgical procedures in children with CP. Despite the prevalence little research has been undertaken to quantify the extent of deviation in foot pathology compared to normal. Quan...

Symptomatic flexible flatfoot in adults: subtalar arthroereisis

Flexible flatfoot is a common deformity in pediatric and adult populations. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the functional and radiographic results of subtalar arthroereisis in adult patients with symptomatic flexible flatfoot. We included 26 feet in 16 patients who underwent subtalar arthroereisis for symptomatic flexible flatfoot. Radiographic examination included calcaneal inclination an...

Treatment of the progressive neuromuscular planovalgus foot deformity with the combined Batchelor-Grice procedure.

Twelve patients (17 feet) with progressive neuromuscular planovalgus foot deformity underwent an extra-articular subtalar arthrodesis with the combined Batchelor-Grice procedure. All patients were ambulant and received conservative treatment with braces and special orthopaedic shoes before the operation. Postoperatively the feet were immobilized in short leg casts for 6 weeks. Evaluation was ba...
