Neuromas of the Heel

Clinics in Podiatric Medicine and Surgery, 1990
Often overlooked in the differential diagnosis of heel pain is neuroma of the medial calcaneal branch of the posterior tibial nerve. Heel neuroma is an important disorder of the foot that has been misdiagnosed by physicians since the early 1900s as heel spur syndrome.

Tumors of the Heel

Clinics in Podiatric Medicine and Surgery, 1990
We have attempted to show a correlation between heel pain and tumors and tumor-like conditions. The anatomy and size of the calcaneus predisposes it to increased incidence of trauma. Furthermore, the increased vascularity of the heel versus other areas of the foot may contribute to a higher incidence of both local and metastatic tumors. Most tumors and

Background: Heel cord lengthening is a common component of foot and ankle surgery. If the tendon is anatomically or functionally over lengthened patients may develop plantarflexion weakness and heel overload problems such as symptomatic plantar heel callosities and heel ulceration. Methods: Nine patients who developed heel overload or heel ulcer after

The Relationship of Heel Pad Elasticity and Plantar Heel Pain

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1999
Loss of heel pad elasticity has been suggested as one of the possible explanations of plantar heel pain. This hypothesis is evaluated by this blinded observer prospective study, using an age and weight matched control population. Hindfoot lateral radiographs of 73 patients with plantar heel pain, 29 of whom had bilateral involvement (102 feet), and who
