Download or read book Patient specific Modeling of Adult Acquired Flatfoot Deformity Before and After Surgery written by Edward Meade Spratley and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The use of computational modeling is an increasingly commonplace technique for the investigation of biomechanics in intact and pathological musculoskeletal systems. Moreover, given the robust and repeatable nature of computer simulation and the prevalence of software techniques for accurate 3-D reconstructions of tissues, the predictive power of these models has increased dramatically. However, there are no patient-specific kinematic models whose function is dictated solely by physiologic soft-tissue constraints, articular shape and contact, and without idealized joint approximations. Moreover, very few models have attempted to predict surgical effects combined with postoperative validation of those predictions. Given this, it is not surprising that the area of foot/ankle modeling has been especially underserved. Thus, we chose to investigate the pre- and postoperative kinematics of Adult Acquired Flatfoot Deformity (AAFD) across a cohort of clinically diagnosed sufferers. AAFD was chosen as it is a chronic and degenerative disease wherein degradation of soft-tissue supporters of the medial arch eventually cause gross malalignment in the mid- and hindfoot, along with significant pain and dysfunction. Also, while planar radiographs are still used to diagnose and stage the disease, it is widely acknowledged that these 2-D measures fail to fully describe the 3-D nature of AAFD. Thus, a population of six patient-specific rigid-body computational models was developed using the commercially available software packages Mimics℗ and SolidWorks℗ in order to investigate foot function in patients with diagnosed Stage IIb AAFD. Each model was created from patient-specific sub-millimeter MRI scans, loaded with body weight, individualized muscle forces, and ligament forces, in single leg stance. The predicted model kinematics were validated pre- and postoperatively using clinically utilized radiographic angle distance measures as well as plantar force distributions. The models were then further exploited to predict additional biomechanical parameters such as articular contact force and soft-tissue strain, as well as the effect of hypothetical surgical interventions. Subsequently, kinematic simulations demonstrated that the models were able to accurately predict foot/ankle motion in agreement with their respective patients. Additionally, changes in joint contact force and ligament strain observed across surgical states further elucidate the complex biomechanical underpinnings of foot and ankle function.

This book was released on 2015 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Several surgically corrective procedures are considered to treat Adult Acquired Flatfoot Deformity (AAFD) patients, relieve pain, and restore function. Procedure selection is based on best practices and surgeon preference. Recent research created patient specific models of Adult Acquired Flatfoot Deformity (AAFD) to explore their predictive capabilities and examine effectiveness of the surgical procedure used to treat the deformity. The models' behavior was governed solely by patient bodyweight, soft tissue constraints, and joint contact without the assumption of idealized joints. The current work expanded those models to determine if an alternate procedure would be more effective for the individual. These procedures included one hindfoot procedure, the Medializing Calcaneal Osteotomy (MCO), and one of three lateral column procedures: Evans osteotomy, Calcaneocuboid Distraction Arthrodesis (CCDA), Z osteotomy and the combination procedures MCO & Evans osteotomy, MCO & CCDA, and MCO & Z osteotomy all used in combination with a tendon transfer. The combination MCO & Evans and MCO & Z procedures were shown to provide the greatest amount of correction for both forefoot abduction and hindfoot valgus. However, these two procedures significantly increased the joint contact force, specifically at the calcaneocuboid joint, and ground reaction force along the lateral column. With exception to the lateral bands of the plantar fascia and middle spring ligament, the strain present in the plantar fascia, spring, and deltoid ligaments decreased after all procedures. The use of patient specific computational models provided the ability to investigate effects of alternate surgical corrections on restoring biomechanical function in flatfoot patients.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new book consolidates the current knowledge of lower extremity biomechanics and pathomechanics and makes this information relevant to the study of common foot and ankle pathologies. The content is presented in a language and format that allows the clinician to review current evidence explaining the etiology of these disorders in order to formulate effective treatment interventions. In order to understand pathomechanics, the clinician must also become versed in the normal, healthy biomechanics of the lower extremity. A review of gait, muscle function and forces acting on the lower extremities during physical activity will be the focus of the first part of this book. The second part of the book will study the common, challenging pathologies treated on a daily basis by foot and ankle clinicians: hallux abducto valgus, hallux rigidus, metatarsalgia, digital deformities, adult acquired flatfoot, and plantar heel pain. These chapters discuss all the relevant factors contributing to these conditions, evaluating and exposing myths and misconceptions about the pathomechanics and treatments of these conditions. For each disorder, a comprehensive review of published research provides a foundation for an updated, valid description of etiology and risk factors. Providing a fresh approach to lower extremity pathomechanics and management strategies, Pathomechanics of Common Foot Disorders is a valuable resource for podiatrists and orthopedic foot and ankle surgeons at all levels.
