Does the skin heat up before it breaks down in diabetic foot ulceration?
Abstract Aims Most diabetic foot ulcers are caused by tissue stress from being ambulatory in people without protective sensation. These ulcers are suggested to be preceded by local skin temperature increase due to inflammation of the underlying tissue, a so‐called hotspot. Evidence to support this mechanism of ulcer development is meagre at best.

Abstract Cartilage and osteochondral lesions of the first metatarsophalangeal (MTP‐1) joint are characterized by pain during weight bearing and walking. The lesions often require surgical intervention(s). Arthroscopic bone marrow stimulation may be considered the preferred operative intervention for small lesions.

Abstract Arthrodesis of the first metatarsophalangeal joint is indicated for severe hallux valgus deformity. Open arthrodesis requires extensive soft‐tissue dissection. Recently, a technique of arthroscopic first metatarsophalangeal arthrodesis in hallux valgus deformity has been reported.

Abstract Great toe metatarsophalangeal joint (MTPJ) arthroscopy has been described in the literature for more than 50 years for treatment of a multitude of first MTPJ pathologies, including hallux rigidus, hallux valgus, and osteochondritis dissecans, among others.

Minimal incision surgery in hallux rigidus
The choice of surgical technique in the treatment of hallux rigidus is an individual decision of the surgeon. Minimally invasive osteotomies have proven to be valid techniques, allowing us to perform cheilectomies, first proximal phalangeal osteotomies,

An estimated 40% of the US population have foot problems. Of all patients aged over 50 years, 2.5% report degenerative arthritis of the first metatarsophalangeal (MTP) joint, termed ‘hallux rigidus’. First MTP osteoarthritis is the most common arthritic condition in the foot. Progression of great toe arthritis is associated with pain and loss of motion.

Abstract Background The first metatarsophalangeal joint plays a fundamental role during the gait cycle. The Hubscher manoeuvre, which consists of passively dorsiflexing the first metatarsophalangeal joint of an individual in relaxed stance and observing the raising of the medial longitudinal arch, is a clinical test thought to examine the function of ...

Kinetic coupling in distal foot joints during walking
Abstract Background Kinematic coupling between the first metatarsophalangeal (MTP) and midtarsal joints is evident during gait and other movement tasks, however kinetic foot coupling during walking has not been examined. Furthermore, contributing factors to foot coupling are still unclear.
