| Popis: | Previous studies have documented persistent postoperative symptoms and limitations following plantar fasciotomy using patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs). The incomplete recovery (resolution) has been theorized to occur from altered foot biomechanics, and alternative treatment methods have continued to gained popularity for addressing refractory plantar fasciosis (RPF). The purpose of the present study was to assess patient-perceived recovery (PPR) and outcomes after bipolar radiofrequency controlled ablation (BRC) with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injection for RPF. From July 2006 to July 2016, 43 patients (52 procedures) were enrolled. PROMS were prospectively obtained and compared between patients who perceived themselves as recovered without/residual deficits (recovered-resolved, recovered-not resolved) and those not recovered. Holistic satisfaction, procedure-specific satisfaction, complications, reoperations, and failure were recorded. Overall, 67.4% perceived themselves as recovered-resolved, 23.3% as recovered-not resolved, and 9.3% as not recovered. Holistic and procedure specific satisfaction were high (90.7% and 88.4%), with a mean modified Foot Function Index of 11.65, visual analog scale for pain 1.5, and failure rate of 9.3% at a median of 53 months (interquartile range 33 to 83). In the present study, outcomes with BRC with PRP injection compared favorably to the long-term outcomes reported for partial and complete plantar fasciotomy. Although 14 patients (32.6%) continued to have some postoperative symptoms, 71% indicated that they were satisfied with their symptoms, and 64% would undergo a similar procedure again. Therefore, despite the study's shortcomings, a patient's ability to cope appears to have a role in recovery from RPF. |
