Advanced Procedures in Foot and Ankle Surgery

Foot and Ankle Surgery
Clinical Research on Foot and Ankle is an academic peer-reviewed international journal that publishes articles on a wide range of fields related to foot surgery, sports medicine, Achilles heels problem, different techniques of physical therapies, wound management and healing procedure, and other medical issues related to ankle care. The previous issue Volume 4, Issue 2 of the Journal published five research articles and two case reports.

Madadi et al. In their research article conducted a systematic review of attaining better knowledge on the usefulness of different imaging modalities in the diagnosis of calcaneal fracture. Authors concluded that literature on evaluating different imaging modalities was completely lacking or very limited. They further talked about the limitations of their study, saying that their study could not muster enough support to establish the advantage of one modality over the other.

In the research article Amaha et al. Assessed anterolateral ankle pain in two distinct areas by using computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with arthroscopic examination. Authors concluded that scar tissue formation due to inadequate care and the presence of microinstability might be the etiologic factors associated with abnormal findings.
