Compensatory hypertrophy of bone following surgery on the foot
Radiology
|February 1, 1983
Abstract:
Compensatory hypertrophy of bone developed in 5 patients following surgery on the foot. The typical finding of diffuse cortical thickening of the entire ray is thought to represent a static compensatory response which occurs when the usual dynamic response of altered weight-bearing is inadequate or overridden.
