This study investigated how variations in the shape of the astragalus affect tarsal joint behavior, using CT scans. In artiodactyls with a double‐pulley astragalus, the calcaneus shifted plantarly during plantarflexion. This suggests the movement increases hindlimb functional length and contributes to enhanced running speed.

Functional Differences in Muscle Architecture Across the Pelvis and Hind Limb of Primates
ABSTRACT Objectives Understanding the architectural diversity of primate musculature is essential for interpreting locomotor function and reconstructing evolutionary adaptations. This study examines whether interspecific differences in pelvic and hind limb muscle architecture reflect functional differentiation among major muscle groups.

ABSTRACT Objectives Entheses are commonly used to infer past activity patterns, yet their interpretation is limited by the combined effects of mechanical loading and intrinsic biological factors. This study addresses this issue by integrating an Early Medieval population from Pohansko (Czechia; 9th–10th centuries CE) with a Spanish modern professional ...

Abstract The best surgical treatment of osteochondral lesion of the talus (OLT) remains controversial. Among the available surgical procedures for OLTs, implantation of the minced cartilage from the talar lesion is a promising cell‐based technique. However, surgeons may experience difficulties when enough volume and quality of the cartilage cannot be ...

Posterior Arthroscopic Talar Body Nonunion Repair With Subtalar Arthrodesis
Abstract Talus fractures are a rare and challenging problem for the orthopaedic surgeon. They often present following high‐speed injury mechanisms in patients with polytraumatic injuries. Diagnosis and treatment of these fractures may be delayed, at times leading to talus nonunion or malunion.

ABSTRACT In unusual lesions of the Achilles Tendon, clinicians should be aware to perform an effective surgical technique aimed to restore anatomy and function. Medical history of the patients is crucial for understanding the type of traumatic mechanism. Unusual traumatic mechanisms may also present an unconventional injury pattern to repair.

ABSTRACT Mechanical loading‐based rehabilitation of tendinopathies improves symptoms and tendon biomechanics, motivating interest in non‐invasive treatment options. Focused ultrasound (FUS) is a promising technology that precisely targets tissue regions, inducing desired bioeffects while minimally affecting surrounding tissues. To explore its potential

An unusual presentation of osteochondrosis in the elbows and tarsi of a Friesian colt
Summary This case report describes the clinical, diagnostic imaging results and post‐mortem findings in a foal that underwent reassessment following surgical management of angular limb deformities (ALD) and acute onset of gait abnormalities. Upon presentation, the foal showed an abnormal stiff gait characterised by bilateral medial limb collapse during
