Foot Ankle Int. 1996 May;17(5):247-252 Paremain GD, Miller SD, Myerson MS ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Of 34 ankle fusions (34 patients) performed at our institution between June 1992 and June 1993, 15 utilized a miniarthrotomy technique. METHODS: This technique involves two 1.5-cm incisions, one medial and one anterolateral, through which the ankle joint … Read more
Foot Ankle Int. 1999 Aug;20(8):485-490 Fujimori J, Yoshino S, Koiwa M, Nakamura H, Shiga H, Nagashima S ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: We describe an intramedullary nail with fin-like longitudinal ridges that we have developed for arthrodesis of the ankle in rheumatoid arthritis. METHODS: Four fins with sharp tips were attached to the distal … Read more
Foot Ankle Int. 1997 Oct;18(10):639-643 Berend ME, Glisson RR, Nunley JA ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: This study compared the mechanical bending and torsional properties of intramedullary nail fixation and lag screw fixation for tibiotalocalcaneal arthrodesis. METHODS: Seven matched pairs of human cadaver lower extremities were studied, with one hindfoot in each pair stabilized with a … Read more
Foot Ankle Int. 1994 Jun;15(6):297-300 Dohm MP, Benjamin JB, Harrison J, Szivek JA ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: A biomechanical study was undertaken to evaluate the relative stability of three types of internal fixation used for ankle arthrodesis. METHODS: Crossed screw fixation, RAF fibular strut fixation, and T-plate fixation were tested in 30 cadaver ankles using … Read more

Foot Ankle Int. 1994 Nov;15(11):581-584 Frey C, Halikus NM, Vu-Rose T, Ebramzadeh E ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to review 15 years of experience with ankle fusions, specifically addressing the underlying etiology of ankle pathology, incidence of nonunion, and associated predisposing conditions that can lead to nonunion. METHODS: … Read more
Foot Ankle Int. 1994 Jun;15(6):301-305 Friedman RL, Glisson RR, Nunley JA 2nd ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Two commonly used techniques for tibiotalar fusion were quantitatively compared using instrumented testing of the strength of the construct. METHODS: The tibiae and tali from 10 pairs of fresh-frozen cadaveric limbs were used. One joint of each … Read more

(see also: Achilles Tendon Rupture) Discussion while there are many causes of posterior ankle pain, there are two distinct conditions which may affect the Achilles tendon: tendinitis and tendinosis, each having a distinct prognosis; Tendinitis / Tendinosis peritendinous inflammation which does not generally progress to degenerative tendinosis (nor rupture); in other situations, there will … Read more
