Discussion pathoanatomy whole foot is in extreme supination, however, the fore part of the foot is pronated with respect to the hindfoot, as a result of the cavus deformity (the first metatarsal is more plantar flexed than the fifth metatarsal); navicular and the cuboid are rotated medially in relation to the talus, and are held in … Read more
(See also: Work Up for Scaphoid Frx) Discussion w/ proper casting nearly 100% of tubercle & distal third frxs will heal; in addition to healing considerations, the surgeon should note the position of healing (malunion); approximately 80-90% of scaphoid frx at the waist will heal, but only 60-70% of proximal pole frxs will heal; even … Read more

– Anatomy: – subarachnoid space is prolonged in a duralarachnoid sheath around each dorsal and ventral root, roughly to level of union of roots; – because the cord is shorter than vertebral column, nerves slope inferiorly from their levels of origin to appropriate intervertebral foramina, and the angle becomes more acute from … Read more
