tarsal coalition/慢性疼痛

Tarsal coalition refers to the condition that exists when there is absent or restricted movement between two or more of the bones of the hindfoot. The usual cause of the restricted movement is a congenital abnormality with a fibrous (syndesmosis), cartilagenous (synchondrosis), or bony (synostosis)

Posterior ankle pain is a cause of chronic pain and disability, afflicting a wide range of individuals. While proper identification of the cause is essential for timely and adequate treatment, identifying the cause and excluding mimickers is often challenging for the physician due to the complex

BACKGROUND Tarsal coalitions typically occur at the talocalcaneal or calcaneonavicular joints. Common findings are pain, limited range of motion, and a pes planus deformity. METHODS The focus of this case report will include the presentation, imaging, treatment, and outcomes for a 21-year-old female

Tarsal coalition is a condition described by partial union between tarsal bones. Its clinical significance is the potential cause for chronic pain in the ankle and foot. Diagnosis of this condition may be delayed until adolescence or early adulthood, and is often made incidentally on examination for

The causes of chronic posttraumatic ankle pain are manifold, ranging from ligament and tendon injuries and fractures to joint degeneration. Calcaneonavicular coalition, a bridge between the calcaneus and navicular bones, is a rare disease with an incidence below 1%. The morphology of this coalition

Calcaneonavicular coalition is a congenital anomaly characterized by a connection between the calcaneus and the navicular. Surgery is required in case of chronic pain and after failure of conservative treatment. The authors present here the surgical technique and results of a 2-portals endoscopic
