Ankle Joint01:10

Ankle Joint

The ankle is formed by the talocrural joint (crural = leg). It consists of the articulations between the talus bone of the foot and the distal ends of the tibia and fibula of the leg. The superior aspect of the talus bone is square-shaped and has three areas of articulation. The top of the talus articulates with the inferior tibia. This is the portion of the ankle joint that carries the body weight between the leg and foot. The sides of the talus are firmly held in position by the articulations...
Muscles of the Leg that Move the Foot and Toes01:28

Muscles of the Leg that Move the Foot and Toes

The human leg comprises an intricate system of muscles that facilitate the movement of feet and toes. Within this system, the muscles are categorized into the anterior, lateral, and posterior compartments, each with a unique set of muscles carrying out specific functions.
Anterior Compartment
The anterior compartment includes muscles that contribute to the dorsiflexion of the foot. This compartment houses the tibialis anterior, extensor hallucis longus, and extensor digitorum longus muscles.
Bones of the Lower Limb: Tibia and Fibula01:10

Bones of the Lower Limb: Tibia and Fibula

The tibia is the main weight-bearing bone of the lower leg. It is larger than the fibula with which it is paired. The tibia is also the second longest bone in the body and is located right below the skin. The proximal end of the tibia forms the medial and the lateral condyle, which articulates with the condyles of the femur to form the knee joint. Between the articulating surfaces is the irregular elevated area known as the intercondylar eminence that serves as the inferior attachment point for...
Diabetic Foot Ulcer01:31

Diabetic Foot Ulcer

Definition A diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) is a chronic, non-healing wound that develops in individuals with diabetes. It typically occurs on pressure-bearing areas such as the heel, metatarsal heads, or hallux, and carries a high risk of infection and amputation.Pathophysiology • The development of DFUs can be explained by four interconnected mechanisms: neuropathy, ischemia, infection, and impaired wound healing. • Neuropathy is the most common factor. Sensory neuropathy reduces pain perception,...
Bones of the Lower Limb: Femur and Patella01:16

Bones of the Lower Limb: Femur and Patella

The femur is the body's longest and strongest bone spanning the thigh region. Its head articulates with the acetabulum of the hip bone to form the hip joint. A minor indentation on the medial side of the femoral head, called the fovea capitis, serves as the site of attachment for the ligament of the head of the femur. This weak ligament spans the femur and acetabulum and supports the hip joint. The narrowed region below the head is the neck of the femur. The inclination angle between the neck...
Pulse Assessment Sites01:11

Pulse Assessment Sites

Pulse assessment sites are crucial in evaluating a patient's cardiovascular health. By assessing the pulsations of arteries at specific anatomical locations, healthcare professionals can gather valuable information about blood flow, heart rate, and peripheral circulation. Understanding these pulse assessment sites is essential for conducting comprehensive cardiovascular evaluations and monitoring patients' overall health. These sites are strategically chosen due to the accessibility and...

Summary

Subtalar dislocation treatment shows excellent outcomes, with most patients achieving high functional scores and minimal complications. Early diagnosis and accurate reduction are key for successful subtalar joint injury recovery.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic surgery
  • Traumatology
  • Foot and ankle surgery

Background:

  • Subtalar dislocation is a rare traumatic injury involving the talocalcaneal and talonavicular joints.
  • It accounts for 1-2% of all dislocations and can present in medial, lateral, anterior, or posterior forms.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present the experience and outcomes of treating subtalar dislocations.
  • To evaluate clinical and radiographic results of patients with subtalar joint injuries.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective analysis of six male patients (average age 31) treated between 1999 and 2011.
  • Follow-up ranged from 1 to 12 years (average 7.8 years).
  • Clinical and radiographic outcomes assessed using the AOFAS ankle and hindfoot scale.

Treatment of Ankle Osteoarthritis with Total Ankle Replacement Through a Lateral Transfibular Approach

Published on: January 24, 2018

Main Results:

  • Average AOFAS score was 91.3, with excellent results in four patients.
  • One patient had satisfactory results, and one had good results.
  • Only one patient showed radiographic signs of osteoarthritis; no significant complications were reported.

Conclusions:

  • Treatment success for subtalar dislocation depends on dislocation type, associated injuries, and prompt, accurate reduction.
  • Medial and open dislocations carry higher risks.
  • Proper diagnosis, early reduction, and adequate immobilization are crucial for optimal outcomes in subtalar joint injuries.
