Popis: | One of the most common presenting problems to most foot and ankle surgical practices is the painful flatfoot. Often, the problem is treated with excellent outcomes through a combination of conservative options. In certain cases, conservative care may not alleviate the associated symptoms of foot, ankle, knee, and possibly even back fatigue, pain of the foot and leg, and arthritis of the midfoot, rearfoot, or ankle. In such cases, multiple surgical options are available to treat the underlying deformity and associated symptoms. it is essential to treat the foot and leg as a unit and not to perform surgical based on rapid recovery abut rather on a long-term stable and lasting outcome. |
