The role of arthroereisis of the subtalar joint for flatfoot in children and adults

2017

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Subtalar arthroereisis has been reported as a minimally-invasive, effective and low-risk procedure in the treatment of flatfoot mainly in children but also in adults.It has been described as a standalone or adjunctive procedure, and is indicated in the treatment of flexible flatfoot, tibialis posterior tendon dysfunction, tarsal coalition and accessory navicular syndrome.Different devices for subtalar arthroereisis are currently used throughout the world associated with soft-tissue and bone procedures, depending on the surgeon rather than on standardised or validated protocols.Sinus tarsi pain is the most frequent complication, often requiring removal of the implant.To date, poor-quality evidence is available in the literature (Level IV and V), with only one comparative non-randomised study (Level II) not providing strong recommendations. Long-term outcome and complication rates (especially the onset of osteoarthritis) are still unclear.Cite this article: EFORT Open Rev 2017;2:438–446. DOI: 10.1302/2058-5241.2.170009

“…Generally, orthoses are made for both feet to prevent asymmetrical footwear. It should be noted that scientific evidence for the use of orthoses in this setting is very limited 7 8. Mechanical strain of the foot is known to be causative of PVT, in our case orthoses may have provoked PVT.…”

Plantar vein thrombosis provoked by mechanical strain to the foot: a rare cause of plantar heel pain

et al. 2019

A 61-year-old mountain hiker presented with acute pain of the medial-plantar aspect of the right foot. As the location, intensity and acute onset of the pain were atypical for fasciitis plantaris, an ultrasound was performed. This demonstrated a segmental plantar vein thrombosis (PVT), which was confirmed on consequent MRI. Patient was a non-smoker, without a medical or family history of coagulopathies. Four months previously, he suffered from metatarsalgia of the left, thus contralateral, foot, which prompted treatment with bilateral orthoses. In addition to metatarsal padding, medial-arch support was prescribed due to the presence of flexible flatfeet. Following internal medicine consultation, treatment consisted of discontinuing the use of orthoses, rest and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). At 2-week follow-up, the patient was pain-free. In this case report, PVT, a rare cause for plantar heel pain, is discussed. In addition, a summary of the diagnosis and treatment of PVT is outlined.

“…When flat feet develop, they often lead to other deformities, such as hammer toes and bunions [16]. In children, flat feet occur quite frequently and are described as physiological, since with reaching adulthood the problem often subsides by itself.…”

Funds collection zebranie funduszy Summary Footwear is, first and foremost, an essential wardrobe component, without which it is difficult to imagine an ordinary working day. High-heeled shoes are mainly worn for aesthetic reasons, and to enhance the slenderness of the female body. Badly fitting footwear can lead to the development of several medical conditions affecting function of the foot as well as the wider musculoskeletal system. Foot deformations correlate highly with the type of footwear being worn. The most commonly occurring foot disorders caused by wearing high heels are: bunions, hammer toe, mallet toe, claw toe, and flat feet. These types of shoes can also cause injuries such as sprains, dislocations and fractures around the ankle joint and in the foot itself. Highheeled footwear may have an effect not only on the foot, but also on the whole limb, including the spine and pelvis, as destructive changes around the foot affect the entire biokinematic chain, and being the first component of this chain they impede movement and negatively impact the function of other joints. Over time, inappropriate function of the foot joints results in dysfunction of other joints located higher, disrupting correct body posture. The aim of this work is to draw the readers' attention to the effects of wearing high-heeled footwear, both the negative and positive, though the latter are extremely rare.
