Restoring mobility after implantation of a drop foot stimulator – Preliminary results
Background: Unlike the stroke related drop foot therapy with ortheses the therapeutic effect of an implantable peroneus nerve stimulator is not well described. The ActiGait ® (Otto Bock, Duderstadt/Germany) system is a dynamic therapy option which is placed direct to the motoric part of the peroneal nerve and evokes a dorsiflexion of the paralysed foot.

Interosseous membrane window size for tibialis posterior tendon transfer—Geometrical and MRI analysis
Tibialis posterior transfer was first reported by Ober in 1933 [1]. He described the circumtibial technique. This transfer allows the foot to recover (at least partially) its dorsiflexion motion in pathologies such as Charcot-Marie-Tooth, leprosy, mononeuropathy, common peroneal nerve injury, stroke, Duchenne muscular dystrophy [2–5,7], whenever the deformity is flexible.
