Q

Antagonist to Tib Ant and Post Tib.

A

P Longus and P brevis respectively

24
Q

what is modified Brostrom

A

recon of ATFL, CFL, with augment of inferior extensor retinaculum

25
Q

what is evans procedure for ankle instability

A

a NON-anatomic recon of lateral support b/w the positions of ATFL and CFL - involves using half or P. brevis and attaching to anterior fibula via a drill bhole

26
Q

ways to avoid floating toe with Weil

A

make osteotomy as plantar and paralle to floor as possible to avoid MT head from moving plantar as it is shortened

27
Q

how to pick up sesamoid fracture

A

bone scan can help - to determine if source of pain

28
Q

risk factors for achilles wound issues

A

tobacco&raquo_space; steroids and female gender; DM also a rf

29
Q

inversion ankle injury a/w

A

OCD of talar dome, peroneal tendon split, anterolateral soft tissue impingment

30
Q

eversion ankle injury a/w

A

detloid avulsion fleck - anterior colliculus

31
Q

HO after high ankle sprain develops

A

6-8months after injury- wait for a negative bone scan

32
Q

navicular stress fracture tx

A

NWB x 6week; perc ORIF only after

33
Q

during heel strike what happens to GSC

A

dorman, TA Is ECCENTRIC

34
Q

screw diameter and Jones frx

A

if < 4.5 then higher rate of delayed or non-union

35
Q

TAA vs fusion in young patients

A

Fusion for active young, TAA is for older

36
Q

consequence of removalof both sesamoids

A

toe cock-up deformity

37
Q

treatment of flexible claw toe

A

based on PIP - if flexible then FDL transfer to extensor surface; if rigid PIP then resection arthroplasty +/- weil if many toes

38
Q

triad of claw toe

A

Dorsiflexed MTP; Hyperflex at PIP and DIP

39
Q

supramalleolar osteotomy for varus ankle

A

if stage 2 - 3a then good; 3b is not as good

40
Q

FHL tendonitis sx

A

posteromedial ankle pain; crepitus, triggering of great toe; decresaed passive extension of the great toe.pain with resisted great toe extension

41
Q

second tier tx of Plantar fascitis

A

night splints, steroid shot, and casting

42
Q

third line tx of Plantar fascititis

A

surgical release or extracorporal shockwave tx

43
Q

Sx for cavovarus and lateral ankle instability

A

recon of lateral ligaments and calc osteotomy

44
Q

chance of osteoM with ulcer that probes to bone

A

if probes to bone then 65%

45
Q

when do diabetic ulcers recurr

A

1 month after initiall healing in casting - help avoid recurrence with achilles lengthening

46

A

poor compared to bony \even with ORIF

50
Q

how much delay after stroke before surg is doable

A

for acquired cavovarus - wait 18-24 months

51
Q

ligament integrity and Total ankle

A

they must be reconstructed - if not stable then cant do it

52

medial vs lateral ocd

A

medial is more common, less traumatic, deeper and more posterior.

53
Q

what is boutinerre caused by

A

central slip - PIP flexion; DIP extension
