BACKGROUND: Posterior tibialis tendon dysfunction (PTTD) is a chronic degenerative musculoskeletal disorder causing a progressive ankle complex and arch collapse altering lower limb biomechanics. However, biomechanical changes associated with stage 1 and 2 PTTD need to be better characterized during walking to guide clinical recommendations and improve non-operative treatments. RESEARCH QUESTION: What are the lower limb kinematic and kinetic differences between individuals with stage 1 (PTTD1), individuals with stage 2 PTTD (PTTD2) and healthy counterparts during gait? METHODS: Sixteen PTTD1, 11 PTTD2 and 20 healthy controls were included in this multicentric case-control study to compare their lower limb gait biomechanics...

Understanding the traumatic mechanisms of ankle injuries in soccer is crucial for an accurate and complete MRI diagnosis. Many ankle injuries share universal mechanisms seen in other athletic activities, but certain patterns are found to be more specific and relatively unique to soccer. Ankle impingement syndromes encountered in soccer encompass a spectrum of disorders that include anterior and posterior impingement categories, with anterior impingement representing pathology relatively specific to soccer. Lateral ligamentous sprains are one of the most common injuries; however, there is a higher rate of injuries to the medial structures in soccer as compared to other sports...

BACKGROUND: Supination resistance is a clinical outcome that estimates the amount of external force required to supinate the foot. A greater supination resistance may indicate greater loads on structures responsible for generating internal supination moments across the subtalar joint during static and dynamic tasks. As such, greater supination resistance may be an expected finding in medial foot and ankle musculoskeletal disorders, such as plantar fasciopathy (PF) and posterior tibial tendon dysfunction (PTTD), whereas reduced supination resistance may be present in lateral ankle disorders, such as chronic ankle instability (CAI)...

In-office needle arthroscopy (IONA) has been a readily available tool dating back to the 1990s, primarily for diagnostic purposes. This technique was not fully accepted and implemented because of significant limitations with the image quality and lack of instrumentation available to simultaneously treat the identified pathologies. However, recent advancements in IONA technology have made it possible to perform arthroscopic procedures under local anesthesia in the office setting, which once required a full operating suite...

Adult acquired flatfoot deformity (AAFD) is a disorder caused by repetitive overloading, which leads to progressive posterior tibialis tendon (PTT) insufficiency. It mainly affects middle-aged women and occurs with foot pain, malalignment, and loss of function. After clinical examination, imaging plays a key role in the diagnosis and management of this pathology. Imaging allows confirmation of the diagnosis, monitoring of the disorder, outcome assessment and complication identification. Weight-bearing radiography of the foot and ankle are gold standard for the diagnosis of AAFD...

BACKGROUND: Tendinopathy, enthesopathy, labral degeneration, and pathologic conditions of the articular disc (knee meniscus and ulnocarpal) are sometimes described in terms of inflammation or damage, while the histopathologic findings are often consistent with mucoid degeneration. A systematic review of the histopathology of these structures at diverse locations might reconceptualize these diseases as expected aspects of human aging. The potential benefits of this evolution might include healthier patient and clinician mindsets as well as a reduced likelihood of overdiagnosis and overtreatment resulting from greater awareness of base rates of pathology...

BACKGROUND: Joint laxity is a multifactorial phenotype with a heritable component. Type I collagen gene (COL1A1) mutations cause connective tissue disorders with joint hypermobility as a clinical feature, while variants within COL1A1 and type III collagen gene (COL3A1) are associated with musculoskeletal injuries. The aim of this study was to investigate whether COL1A1 and COL3A1 variants are associated with measurements of non-dominant knee joint laxity and computed ligament length changes...

Posterior tarsal tunnel syndrome (PTTS) is an entrapment neuropathy due to compression of the tibial nerve or one of its terminal branches within the tarsal tunnel in the medial ankle. The tarsal tunnel is formed by the flexor retinaculum, while the floor is composed of the distal tibia, talus, and calcaneal bones. The tarsal tunnel contains a number of significant structures, including the tendons of 3 muscles as well as the posterior tibial artery, vein, and nerve. Focal compressive neuropathy of PTTS can originate from anything that physically restricts the volume of the tarsal tunnel...

Congenital talipes equinovarus (CTEV), or clubfoot, is the the most common encountered musculoskeletal defect encountered at birth. Most cases present as an isolated deformity, with up to half of them presenting with bilateral deformity. CTEV have also been reported to present as part of syndromic phenomena. Dr Igancio Ponseti proposed a serial casting programme to correct the foot's cavus, forefoot adduction, varus and equinus. Up to 90% of infants will require a tendo-achilles (TA) tenotomy for the persisting equinus deformity...

Forefoot varus develops as a result of longstanding adult-acquired flatfoot deformity (AAFD). This occurs with varying degrees of deformity and flexibility. Residual forefoot varus following hindfoot realignment in AAFD can lead to lateral column loading and a persistent pronatory moment in efforts to reestablish contact between the forefoot and the ground. The Cotton osteotomy may serve as a reasonable adjunct procedure to help avoid complications and poor outcomes associated with residual forefoot varus in patients undergoing hindfoot arthrodesis for stage III AAFD...

In this review we described the anatomy and biomechanics of popliteus muscle and its tendon. Furthermore, we combined the anatomy with clinics and discussed a wide spectrum of disorders regarding the popliteus and its musculotendinous complex. There are three main anatomical regions of the popliteus musculotendinous complex: the proximal origin, the mid-portion, the distal part on the tibia. The unique localisation and various origins of the tendon, connected with structures such as fibular head, Wrisberg, Humphrey and posterior cruciate ligament, lateral meniscus, medial collateral ligament, give an implication to diagnosis and treatment...
