Patient-reported outcome measures are an increasingly important tool for assessing the impact of treatments orthopedic surgeons render. Despite their importance, they can present a burden. We examined the validity and utility of a computerized adaptive testing (CAT) method to reduce the number of questions on the Foot and Ankle Ability Measure (FAAM), a validated anatomy-specific outcome measure.

Osteochondral lesions of the talus (OLT) are relatively common. Following the failure of conservative treatment, many operative options have yielded varied results. In this study, midterm outcomes after fresh-frozen osteochondral allograft transplantation for the treatment of OLT were evaluated.

Medial malleolar osteotomy is an established procedure for accessing the medial localized osteochondral lesions of the talus. The purpose of this study was to describe a single approach, which allows perpendicular access to the lesion without a malleolar osteotomy.

Peripheral nerve blocks (PNBs) have revolutionized distal extremity surgery reducing pain and improving hospital efficiency. Perineural dexamethasone has been administered with PNBs to prolong their effects, although the safety of dexamethasone has not been established in the literature. This study aimed to determine if the addition of dexamethasone affected the postoperative neurological sensory status for foot and ankle surgeries and the recovery of nerve injuries. We hypothesized that the rate of persistent nerve injury would be higher in the dexamethasone group.

Although surgeons have argued that preserving motion at the level of the ankle joint may be crucial for the long-term success in the treatment of end-stage ankle osteoarthritis, there is little evidence regarding the potential of total ankle arthroplasty (TAA) to increase ankle range of motion (ROM). In addition, the effect of a percutaneous heel cord lengthening (HCL) during TAA on ankle motion is poorly understood.

Previous studies have found an increased rate of deformity recurrence in hallux valgus (HV) patients with concomitant metatarsus adductus (MA) undergoing metatarsal osteotomies. The purpose of this paper was to determine if there were radiographic or clinical outcome differences between HV patients with and without MA undergoing a modified Lapidus procedure.

Total ankle replacements (TARs) have higher rates of osteolysis than hip or knee replacements. It is unclear whether this is a pathologic immunologic process in response to wear debris, or expansion of pre-existing osteoarthritic bone cysts. We aimed to determine the incidence of bone cysts in patients with end-stage ankle arthritis prior to surgery and review the literature on bone cysts and osteolysis in relation to TAR.

The suture anchors for the repair of deltoid ligament in rotational ankle fracture are inserted mostly into the medial malleolus, but sometimes are placed into the talus depending on the rupture site. This study sought to compare the radiological and clinical outcomes of deltoid ligament repair according to using these 2 locations for suture anchor placement.

Chronic heel pain with plantar fasciitis is relatively common and can affect adults of all ages regardless of an active or sedentary lifestyle. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the effectiveness of corticosteroid injection (CSI), extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT), and radiofrequency thermal lesioning (RTL) treatments in chronic plantar heel pain that has been unresponsive to other conservative treatments.

It is known that there is an association between gastrocnemius tightness and plantar fasciitis, but this has never been quantified. The purpose of the study was to determine the correlation between gastrocnemius tightness and the severity of heel pain in plantar fasciitis.

Allograft reconstruction of the peroneal tendons is an option for treatment of major tears of 1 or both peroneal tendons. No consensus on a superior distal fixation method has been reported. The purpose of the study was to compare load to failure and stiffness of a Pulvertaft weave (PTW) through a residual tendon stump to direct-to-bone interference screw (IS) fixation.

Although necrotizing fasciitis is a life-threatening entity that needs expeditious treatment, cases involving the lower extremity are less commonly encountered than in the upper extremity. Surgical intervention is often required and likely lead to amputation (below-knee or above-knee) vs debridement in the lower extremity.
