“…The final quantitative analysis included 2063 feet. Ten studies were one-armed retrospective studies and the other one was two-armed retrospective study 1 . Patient age was 4 to 17 years in endosinotarsal cone-shaped implant group and 4 to 16 years in exosinotarsal group.…”

“…We suggest three possible explanations (there may be more). First, the exosinotarsal metallic screw implant had less contact area to bone than endosinotarsal implants, which may lead to bone erosion and consequent less corrective effect 1,24 . Second, the variable screw purchase to calcaneus may lead to screw loosening after repeated subtalar motion.…”

“…Incomplete correction may be associated with the exosinotarsal implants 30 . Bioabsorbable material may be associated with regional inflammatory response 1,30 . Higher body mass index was found to be associate with higher complication rates and less deformity correction with endosinotarsal implants 21 .…”

reviewed for relevant reference. Literature not written in English, not available in full text, adult patients, focus on gait analysis, review articles, patients with neuromuscular diseases, case reports, or techniques except exosinotarsal subtalar screw in calcaneus or endosinotarsal cone-shaped implant were excluded. We investigated studies using endosinotarsal tunnel subtalar arthroereisis for pediatric flexible flatfoot treatment. The search strategy comprised the following keywords combined with subtalar arthroereisis: flexible flatfoot and pes planus. Regarding the types of included studies, we enrolled randomized controlled trials (RCTs), comparative experimental trials, or single-armed follow up studies. We excluded case series and case reports. The target population comprised pediatric patients who suffered from painful flexible flatfoot.

“…Abnormal pressure leads to foot discomfort of flat feet, which, if not treated, will produce pain and disability [ 5 ]. Flat feet is regarded as a contributing factor in a wide variety of medical conditions, including lower limb musculoskeletal pathology, such as Achilles tendonitis, plantar fasciitis, hallux valgus [ 6 ], and tenderness of the ligamentous laxity [ 7 ].…”

Effects of Artificial Texture Insoles and Foot Arches on Improving Arch Collapse in Flat Feet

The arches of the foot play a vital role in cushioning the impact and pressure generated from ground reaction forces due to body weight. Owing to a lack of normal human arch structure, people diagnosed as having flat feet often have discomfort in the soles of their feet. The results may not only cause inappropriate foot pressure distribution on the sole but also further cause foot injuries. This study heavily relies on a homemade foot pressure sensing device equipped with textured insoles of different heights and artificial arches. This was to explore the extent to which the pressure distribution of the foot in people with flat feet could be improved. A further comparison was made of the effects of using the textured insoles with different heights on two different groups of people diagnosed with flat and normal feet respectively. Sixty-five undergraduate and postgraduate volunteers were invited to receive the ink footprint test for measuring their degrees of arch index. Nine of these 65 had 2 flat feet, 3 had a left flat foot, 5 had a right flat foot, and 48 had 2 normal feet. To ensure the same number of subjects in both the control and the experimental groups, 9 of the 48 subjects who had normal feet were randomly selected. In total, 26 subjects (Male: 25, Female: 1; Age: 22 ± 1 years; height: 173.6 ± 2.5 cm; body mass: 68.3 ± 5.4 kg; BMI: 22.6 ± 1.2) were invited to participate in this foot pressure sensing insoles study. The experimental results showed that the use of textured insoles designed with different heights could not effectively improve the plantar pressure distribution and body stability in subjects with flat feet. Conversely, the use of an artificial arch effectively improved the excessive peak in pressure and poor body stability, and alleviated the problem of plantar collapse for patients with flat feet, especially in the inner part of their hallux and forefoot.
