Foot and ankle tendoscopies: current concepts review
نویسندگان
چکیده
Tendoscopy is an apparently safe and reliable procedure to manage some foot and ankle disorders.The most common foot and ankle tendoscopies are: Achilles; peroneal; and posterior tibial tendon.Tendoscopy may be used as an adjacent procedure to other techniques.Caution is recommended to avoid neurovascular injuries.Predominantly level IV and V studies are found in the literature, with no level I studies still available.There are many promising and evolving endoscopic techniques for tendinopathies around the foot and ankle, but studies of higher levels of evidence are needed to strongly recommend these procedures.

Current concepts review: venous thromboembolic disease in foot and ankle surgery.
Venous thromboembolic disease (VTED) can be fatal, particularly in orthopaedic surgical patients.14,15 Clinicians and researchers continue to struggle to define, from a riskbenefit perspective, which subset of foot and ankle patients would benefit from prophylaxis and which treatment is appropriate for a given patient. Efforts have focused on preventing the most common and most dangerous sequel...
متن کاملEfficacy of Different Types of Foot Orthoses on Postural Control in Subjects With Lateral Ankle Sprain: A Systematic Review
Background and Objectives: Lateral ankle sprain is one of the most common injuries to the musculoskeletal system, especially among active people. This injury causes complex complications, such as recurrent sprain because of reduced postural control. Foot orthoses are among the interventions used to improve postural control in this population. This review aims to investigate foot orthoses to imp...
متن کاملEffects of Balance Training on Postural Control in Athletes with Chronic Ankle Instability: A Systematic Review
Objective The Objective Ankle sprains are among the most common injuries in athletes. One of the limitations of people with chronic ankle instability is the lack of postural control. Balance and coordination training are among the most common interventions for people with chronic ankle instability. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of balance training on postural co...
متن کاملConservative and surgical treatment of the chronic Charcot foot and ankle
Charcot neuroarthropathy (CN) is a severe joint disease in the foot and ankle that can result in fracture, permanent deformity, and limb loss. It is a serious and potentially limb-threatening lower-extremity late complication of diabetes mellitus. The aim of this manuscript was to evaluate modern concepts of chronic CN through a review of the available literature and to integrate a perspective ...
متن کاملCurrent concepts review: heparin-induced thrombocytopenia.
Immune-type (Type II) heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) is a rare but potentially fatal complication that can result from the use of heparin or its derivatives employed to reduce the risk of venous thromboembolic disease (VTED) after surgery. As such, the onset of HIT creates a therapeutic paradox: VTED prophylaxis that induces systemic thrombosis. Orthopaedic patients often necessitate ch...
