The mechanism of hallux valgus (HV) development has not been fully clarified, and a new evaluation method is required. We aimed to establish for calculating the rotational moment midfoot (RMM) by developing three-dimensional foot scanner, reveal features HV using this method. A smartphone was used capture images analyze regions in 592 participants. focused on feature points such as great toe-fi...

Kedilerde gözlenen travmalar ve bu travmalara bağlı oluşabilecek patolojik durumların hayvan travma triaj skoru (ATT) modifiye Glasgow koma skalaları (MGCS) kullanılarak, önceden anlaşılması bunlara yönelik hazırlık aşaması, hastanın prognozu objektif değerlendirilme sonuçlarının ortaya konulması amaçlanmıştır. Çalışma materyalini Veteriner Fakültesi Cerrahi Anabilim Dalı Kliniği’ne 2020-2021 y...

A 13 month old female child attended the CSU Allied Health Clinic student training podiatry service for assessment and treatment of her pronounced bilateral metatarsus adductus. Her deformity was mobile and a grade 4 on the right foot and grade 3 on the left using Bleck’s classification scale. On presentation, each foot was able to be corrected to a straight lateral border with moderate hand pr...

Superficial digital flexor tendon (SDFT) of the bovine hindlimb originates from the caudolateral aspect of the distal femur and finally inserts onto the plantar aspect of the middle phalanges. In the present study, morphology and morphometry of the bovine SDFT at the muscle-tendon junction (MTJ), middle metatarsus (mM) and tendon-bone interface (TBI) were investigated. Cross-sectional morpholog...

Vascular and neurological mechanisms are both likely to be involved in foot ulcer. We recently reported a pressure-induced vasodilation (PIV), relying on unmyelinated afferent excitation. We previously found that cutaneous blood flow in response to locally applied pressure might be impaired in diabetic patients because of the combined effects of low cutaneous temperature and alterations in micr...

We reviewed the outcome of distal chevron metatarsal osteotomy without tendon transfer in 19 consecutive patients (19 feet) with a hallux varus deformity following surgery for hallux valgus. All patients underwent distal chevron metatarsal osteotomy with medial displacement and a medial closing wedge osteotomy along with a medial capsular release. The mean hallux valgus angle improved from -11....

Metallic implants with a low effective modulus can provide early load-bearing and reduce stress shielding, which is favorable for increasing in vivo life-span. In this research, porous Ti6Al4V scaffolds with three pore sizes (300~400, 400~500, and 500~700 μm) were manufactured by Electron Beam Melting, with an elastic modulus range of 3.7 to 1.7 GPa. Cytocompatibility in vitro and osseointegrat...
