The Nightmare of Calcaneus: Gustilo-Anderson Type IIIB Fractures

However, it is possible to obtain good results with soft-tissue reconstructions.PMID:38175701 | DOI:10.7547/21-179 (Source: Journal of the American Podiatric Medical Association)

Necrotizing Fasciitis in Charcot-Marie-Tooth Treated with Debridement, Free Flap, and Extra-Articular Reconstruction
This report not only showcases the success of a procedure high on the reconstructive ladder in a patient at high risk for complications but also highlights an approach in which functional recovery is also optimized successfully in a planned staged multidisciplinary manner.PMID:38175702 | DOI:10.7547/20-281 (Source: Journal of the American Podiatric Medical Association)

Macrotraumatic Fractures of the Multisegmented Ankle-Foot Complex in Military Tactical Athletes: A Cohort Study
CONCLUSIONS: Sex, occupation, branch, and rank were salient factors for macrotraumatic ankle-foot fractures. These findings can be used to inform and increase precision in medical planning and in the targeted development of preventive interventions.PMID:38175726 | DOI:10.7547/22-114 (Source: Journal of the American Podiatric Medical Association)

Failed Bilateral Total Silastic First Metatarsophalangeal Joint Implant Reconstructed with Osteochondral Allograft Implantation
J Am Podiatr Med Assoc. 2023 Nov-Dec;113(6):22-072. doi: 10.7547/22-072.ABSTRACTFirst metatarsophalangeal joint (MPJ) arthritis is a very common form of arthritis seen in the foot. Some signs and symptoms include pain, swelling, decreased passive and active range of motion, difficulty with shoe gear, and so forth. Surgically, options for alleviating symptomatic hallux limitus and arthritis fall into two broad categories: joint sparing and joint sacrificing. In this case study, we present a patient with a bilateral failed total silastic implant of the first MPJ and our proposed revision using an osteochondral bone allograft...

Surgical Excision of Intractable Plantar Keratoses (Corns) of the Foot: A Scoping Review
CONCLUSIONS: There is modest evidence that excision of the lesion with either primary closure or healing by means of secondary intention can be useful for the management of IPKs. A further consideration is an emerging hypothesis that many of these IPKs are viral in origin, rather than mechanical, which implies that prospective studies are required with cross-reference to lesion excision by anatomical site and histopathologic confirmation of the diagnosis.PMID:38175699 | DOI:10.7547/22-044 (Source: Journal of the American Podiatric Medical Association)
