However, some controversies remain on the optimal position of the hindfoot. Previous studies have reported on the potential medialization of the rearfoot during insertion of the IMN, but few studies have examined the potential affect on the subtalar joint. We performed the present cadaveric study in order to assess the involvement of a 12-mm IMN with the posterior facet of the calcaneus. A 3-mm guide wire (for a standard TTC IMN) was inserted in an anterograde fashion beginning within the central aspect of the tibial canal in 10 fresh-frozen below knee cadaver specimens. The subtalar joint of each specimen was exposed and images of the posterior facet were collected. Utilizing an open source Java image processing program (ImageJ/Fiji), we calculated a mean native calcaneal posterior facet of 4.6 cm² with a post ream surface area of 3.6 cm², resulting in a mean of 21.4% of the posterior facet occupied by an IMN in an anterograde fashion. In conclusion, a TTC IMN placed in optimal position within the ankle and tibia is likely to occupy, on average, a fifth of the calcaneal posterior facet. Though this does leave some possibility of a medial shift of the rearfoot complex, care must be taken to not violate the lateral calcaneal or talar wall.

Dorsiflexion Closing Wedge Osteotomy of the Metatarsal Head (DCWMO) has been conventionally employed, whereas Osteochondral Autologous Transplantation (OAT) represents a more recent technique with restricted comparative research. This study aimed to compare the outcomes of DCWMO and OAT for treating Freiberg disease (FD). Groups were established among two institutions. Institution-1 has made the treatment with OAT (8 patients) and Institution-2 has made the treatment with DCWMO (8 patients). The primary outcomes collected, including complications, range of motion, length of the metatarsal, American-Orthopaedic-Foot-and-Ankle-Society-lesser MTP-interphalangeal (AOFAS-LMI) score, visual-analog-scale (VAS), Foot-and-Ankle-Disability (FADI) score, and Short-Form-12 (SF-12), were all compared. The Sport-FADI and activity-FADI scores at final follow-up were significantly greater in the OAT group than in the DCWMO group (94.04 vs 84.75 and 97 vs 92, P = 0.021 and P = 0.04, respectively), whereas plantarflexion at final follow-up was significantly lower in the DCWMO group than in the OAT group (43.13 vs 6.88 degrees, P < 0.001). The AOFAS-LMI score at final follow-up was significantly greater in the DCWMO group than in the OAT group (86.75 vs 75.38, P = 0.013). In conclusion, this study highlights the effectiveness of both OAT and DCWMO in treating Freiberg's disease, as evidenced by significant postoperative improvements in various functional scores, including AOFAS-LMI, VAS and FADI. Notably, OAT demonstrated favorable outcomes in SFADI and AFADI and plantarflexion ROM, while DCWMO led to improved the AOFAS-LMI score.

But while this has previously primarily been investigated as a simple association (i.e. comparison of pre-operative to post-operative values), the objective of this investigation was to consider angular change as a continuous variable and to specifically correlate it with pre-operative values. Radiographs from 100 consecutive first metatarsal-phalangeal joint arthrodeses meeting selection criteria were evaluated. A negative Pearson correlation coefficient was observed between the pre-operative first intermetatarsal angle and intraoperative change in the first intermetatarsal angle (Pearson -0.547; p<0.001). In other words, with progressively increased levels of pre-operative intermetatarsal angle deformity, one should expect greater intermetatarsal angle correction. The relationship is described by the equation Y = 2.82 - 0.38X indicating that for every one degree of pre-operative intermetatarsal deformity over approximately 7 degrees, 0.38 degrees of post-operative correction might be expected. A negative Pearson correlation was observed between the pre-operative hallux valgus angle and the intraoperative change in the first hallux valgus angle (Pearson -0.806; p<0.001). In other words, with progressively increased levels of pre-operative hallux valgus angle deformity, one should expect greater hallux valgus correction. The relationship is described by the equation Y = 5.5 - 0.63X indicating that for every one degree of pre-operative hallux valgus angle deformity over approximately 9 degrees, 0.63 degrees of hallux valgus angle post-operative correction might be expected. Results of this investigation demonstrate a statistical correlation between pre-operative radiographic deformity and intermetatarsal angle and hallux valgus angle post-operative correction, and might provide foot and ankle surgeons with a degree pre-operative prediction of expected angular correction following the procedure.
