Hallux Rigidus with an Increased or Equal First Metatarsal Length after a Cheilectomy and First Metatarsal Shortening Osteotomy (FMSO) Using a Small Shortening Scarf: A Retrospective 7-year Clinical and Gait Analysis Follow-up
To evaluate the long-term outcomes of a combined surgical approach using cheilectomy and shortening SCARF osteotomy for moderate hallux rigidus (Coughlin grades 2-3) in active patients with a first metatarsal index equal to or longer than the second metatarsal.
What to know about anterior ankle impingement
Anterior ankle impingement occurs when the soft tissue around the ankle becomes caught between the shin bone and the front of the ankle. It may also occur due to bone spurs, which are an early sign of osteoarthritis.

The most common cause of heel pain is plantar fasciitis, but Achilles tendonitis, Sever disease, and bursitis are also frequent reasons for heel discomfort. Infections and other minor or severe injuries and disorders can cause throbbing, stabbing, burning, or aching pain in the heel.
Effect of surgery for ankle osteoarthritis on locomotive syndrome
Locomotive syndrome (LS) is characterized by a decline in locomotor function due to musculoskeletal disorders. However, few studies have explored its association with ankle osteoarthritis (AOA) or surgical impact.
