Ankle arthritis and the treatment with ankle replacement
SummaryConcerns about the long-term outcomes of ankle arthrodesis, has created renewed interest in total ankle replacement over the last decade. New implants have been designed with attention to reproducing normal ankle anatomy, joint kinematics, ligament stability, and mechanical alignment.Encouraging intermediate clinical results for second ...

Validity and Reliability of an Inertial Device for Measuring Dynamic Weight-Bearing Ankle Dorsiflexion [PDF]
A decrease in ankle dorsiflexion causes changes in biomechanics, and different instruments have been used for ankle dorsiflexion testing under static conditions.

Vertical stiffness asymmetries during drop jumping are related to ankle stiffness asymmetries [PDF]
Asymmetry in vertical stiffness has been associated with increased injury incidence and impaired performance. The determinants of vertical stiffness asymmetry have not been previously investigated.

In this case study we report a fracture of the lateral process of the talus (LPF) in a snowboarder. The fracture is frequently overlooked initially, due to subtle clinical and radiological findings and a low incidence rate. However, LPF are associated with significant morbidity when missed.

Conversion of Ankle Fusions to Ankle Replacements [PDF]
Category: Ankle Arthritis Introduction/Purpose: Ankle arthrodesis remains a prominent treatment choice for ankle arthritis in a majority of patients. Long term studies have shown a compensatory development of ipsilateral adjacent joint arthritis after ankle arthrodesis, and some patients who receive an ankle arthrodesis develop pain in surrounding ...

Validation of ankle strength measurements by means of a hand-held dynamometer in adult healthy subjects [PDF]
Uniaxial Hand-Held Dynamometer (HHD) is a low-cost device widely adopted in clinical practice to measure muscle force. HHD measurements depend on operator’s ability and joint movements.

Are joint torque models limited by an assumption of monoarticularity? [PDF]
This study determines whether maximal voluntary ankle plantar flexor torque could be more accurately represented using a torque generator that is a function of both knee and ankle kinematics.

Acute compartment syndrome after a lapidus-akin procedure: A case report
Acute compartment syndrome is a limb threatening condition typically associated with traumatic injury; however, it can be associated with surgical procedures such as abdominal and pelvic surgeries as well as hip and knee arthroplasty. In this case report,

Vaulting quantification during level walking of transfemoral amputees [PDF]
Background: Vaulting is a gait compensatory mechanism used by transfemoral amputees to assist toe clearance during the prosthetic swing phase. It is defined by a plantar flexion of the contralateral ankle during the single-limb support phase.
