BMJ Case Rep Published online: [please include Day Month Year] doi:10.1136/bcr-2014205955 DESCRIPTION A 66-year-old man was referred to the general surgeon by his general practitioner for excision of a ‘bump’ on the anterior side of his left ankle because of pain due to irritation from shoe gear. This ‘bump’ slowly started since several m...

abstract background: several studies have examined the reflex response of ankle musculature to sudden inversion in noninjured and injured subjects. to date, there have been no studies to determine the effect of versatile degrees & conditions of perturbation on the ankle musculature latency. the purpose of this study was to measure and determine whether there was a difference in ankle musculatur...

<p class="abstract"><strong>Background: </strong>The objective of the study was to assess clinical outcome and donor site morbidity ACL reconstruction with peroneus longus tendon autografts in patients injury.</p><p class="abstract"><strong>Methods:</strong> 60 Patients who underwent using autograft after fulfilling inclusion criteria obtaining informed...

conclusion significant functional performance deficits were observed in the fai group in all tests except single hop test with greater deficits observed in the fai-gw group. hence, these tests can be used to determine the presence of fai. however no deficits were identified for the test involving sagittal plane functional activities suggesting that this test can not be used as a criterion to di...

background:  there is still controversy regarding the best technique for ankle arthrodesis to acheive stable rigid fixation along with reconstructing a functional plantigrade foot. moreover, existing techniques have complictions related to stability, soft tissue covering, fusion rate, and exposure. methods: with the anterior approach exactly on the tibialis anterior sheath, the joint was expose...

Background: Hamstring and peroneus longus tendon auto graft has similar biomechanical strength. Peroneus is a potential in reconstructive orthopaedic procedures. There was few study evaluation of usage ACL reconstruction. We aimed to quantify the outcome donor site morbidity reconstruction using graft.Methods: Patients who suffered isolated injury were enrolled underwent trans-portal single bun...
