Measurement of Kager's Triangle Area and Retrocalcaneal Surface Temperature by shoes heel height

Abstract

The aim of this study was to analyze radiological change of Kager's triangle area and retrocalcaneal surface temperature by shoes heel height. Area of Kager's triangle was measured by simple radiography study And PACS of INFINITI. Retrocalcaneal surface temperature were measured by DITI. Area of Kager's triangle and retrocalcaneal surface temperature were calculated for comparison and analysis, with flat shoes and high heel shoes. Area of Kager's triangle(0.88cm²) and retrocalcaneal surface temperature (1.4℃)tends to decrease with high heel shoes. The highest and shortest of the Kager's triangle area and a surface temperature difference between flat shoes and high heel shoes, each 0.9cm ², 1.2cm ², 1.6 ℃, 0.5 ℃ and showed slight differences. The highest weight and the lowest weight of a surface area and the temperature difference between flat shoes and high heels, each 1.8cm ², 0.8cm ², 1.1 ℃, 0.2 ℃ and higher weight Kager's area and the surface temperature is decreased. The longest time and shortest time of a surface area and the temperature difference between high heels, each 0.8cm², 1.4℃. In conclusion, Areas of Kager's triangle and retrocalcaneal surface temperature decrease with high heel shoes. If we wear high heel shoes for a long time, retrocalcaneal pain and blood flow disorder will occurs. keyword : Kager's triangle area, Surface temperature, High heel shoes, DITI 요 약 본 연구의 목표는 신발 굽 높이에 따른 Kager씨 삼각 면적의 방사선영상 변화와 후종족부의 표면온도 변화를 알아

Examination of Anatomic and Morphometric Features of Kager’s Triangle

“…The difference with the results of the study by Jeon et al is due to the fact that our study was conducted on embalmed cadavers, and the ankles of the cadavers were fixed in planta flexion due to the effect of gravity. Plantar flexion also reduces the area of the Kager fat pad (14).…”

“…In the literature, 2 studies were found in which the area of the Kager's triangle was examined. was determined that the Kager region shrank in the subjects wearing high heels, and the shape of the Achilles tendon and Kager's triangle changed (14).…”
