Scarf and Akin osteotomies for moderate and severe hallux valgus

2008

Abstract Background The scarf and the combined scarf-Akin procedures are reliable therapeutic tools and can obtain effective correction of symptomatic moderate to severe hallux valgus deformities. Methods The data from 30 patients (37 feet) with moderate to severe hallux valgus deformity who had scarf osteotomies have been retrospectively reviewed. 32 Akin and 77 Weil osteotomies were also carried out at the same stage. The average follow-up was 22 months. Standardized methods of radiographic and clinical data collection were obtained before and after surgery. Patient satisfaction was assessed at follow-up. Results Radiological assessment revealed a significant improvement ( p p Conclusions…

Osteochondritis of the hallux sesamoid bones.

2007

Osteochondritis of the sesamoid bones is an infrequent condition which may affect both the medial and lateral hallux sesamoids. Those cases refractory to conservative treatment can be satisfactorily solved by carrying out its surgical excision. We present a literature review about its causes, pathophysiology, the diagnostic methods and the treatments options.

Treatment of acute Achilles tendon ruptures with Achillon device: Clinical outcomes and kinetic gait analysis

2009

Abstract Background We reviewed the outcomes of the Achillon minimally invasive suture system and an early semi-functional rehabilitation program for the treatment of acute Achilles tendon ruptures. Methods From December 2006 to April 2008, 18 consecutive patients with acute Achilles tendon ruptures were retrospectively reviewed with an average follow-up of 22 months. Clinical data were assessed with the patient satisfaction and the AOFAS hindfoot score. Biomechanical gait parameters were obtained using the NedAMH/IBV dynamometric platform. Results At last follow-up the AOFAS score was 98 (range, 89–100) and correlated well with kinetic gait analysis. All patients regained normal range of m…
