etiologies of pes cavus
-congenital
-acquired
-idiopathic
when examining a cavus pt, whatg is the most imp part of the exam
-NM exam
-because there is a high correlation between NM disorders and cavus
cogenital causes of pes cavus
-myelodysplasia
-myelomeningocele
-spina bifida
-CMT
-freidrichs ataxia
-roussy levy syndrome
-CP
-MD
-clubfoot
-syphillis
-Dejerine Sottas syndrome
acquired etiologies of pes cavus
-polio
-dystonia musculorum deformans
-spinal cord tumors
-trauma
-infection
-lederhose dz
-hysteria
-stroke
how does the foot compensate for cavus deformity
-the midtarsal joint will absorb the sagittal plane motion during WB
-if the midtarsal cant, the ankle will absorb it by DF causing pseudoequinus
-retraction of the toes occurs and extensors gain mech advantage
forefoot valgus and how does the foot compensate
-PF of medial column or mets 1-3, navi and med cune
-foot compensates with midtarsal or STJ supination
what is pseudo equinus
-not a true limitation of ankle DF
-but exists when available DF is used up to compensate for ankle equinus
surgical procedures for NM cavus
joint stabilization or fusion procedures
during coleman block test: the heel moves from inversion and everts to perpendicular: explain
-the calc varus was secondary to FF compensation
heel remains inverted upon coleman block test
-the heel varus is uncompensated or due to a structural heel deformity
surgical procedure that addresses the frontal plane of cavus foot
-dwyer calc osteotomy
is true ankle equinus a common component of cavus foot (osseous, gastroc,)
no it is very rare
-so gastroc or achilles surgery may create complications or a apropulsive heel gait
when are plantar fasciotomies used in cavus foot
-in kids when only forefoot deformities are present
what is the diff b/w steindler stripping and plantar fasciotomy
-steindler stripping releases the fascia and the plantar muscles
jones suspension
EHL to neck of first met
-common with IPJ fusion
-compensates for an overpowering PL and FHL
Heyman Procedure
transfer or 4 long extensor to their respective met heads
Hibbs procedure
EDL to third cuneiform
STATT procedure
-split tibialis anterior tendon transfer
-for flexible cavus foot
-anastomize it to the PT tendon when EHL and EDL are weak
what is the purpose of the PL tendon transfer to the lesser tarsus for cavus
-helps increase ankle DF power and reduce drop foot component of cavus
-also helps reduce PF force of 1st ray
if you perform a TP tendon transfer when weak anterior muscles cause dropfoot, what other procedure must be performed
-rearfoot fusion bc you loose the strongest supinator
Cole procedure
-dorsal based wedge from TNJ to cuboid
-fasciotomy is performed to release a tight fascia
disadvantages of Cole procedure
-shorter, thicker foot
Japas
-V cut through the navi and med cune to cuboid
-forefoot portion is shifted dorsally
McElvenny-Caldwell procedure
-1st met cuneiform fusion for correction of PF first ray in cavus
can a fixed anterior cavus be corrected by multiple dorsal wedge osteotomies of two or more metatarsals
yes
what is a dwyer and its indications
-lateral based closing wedge of the calc; posterior and paralell to PL tendon
-used in rigid calc varus
-the calc must be unable to evert to perpendicular when the FF influence is eliminated
Samilson: crescentic, biplane calc osteotomy
-crescentic osteotomy at the posterior aspect of the calc
-allows for sagittal plane correction as well as varus correction
what is the danger of DFCO to correct posterior cavus
-as a result of raising the posterior calcaneus or reducing the CI angle, any rigid anterior cavus deformity present will cause the talus to rock into furhtur DF of the ankle (this worsens pseudoequinus)
order of joint resections during a triple
-midtarsal first
-then subtalar
what is the effect of posterior displacement of the calc during triple arthrodesis
-increases the power of the posterior muscle group by inc the leve arm
-conversely, anterior displacement of the calc is useful in spastic conditions when the posterior group tends to overpower the anterior group
Forresters Disease
-diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis (DISH)
3 mechanical foot types assoc with Haglunds
-compensated RF varus
-compensated FF valgus
-rigid PF 1st ray
Normal fowler and philip angle
N = 44-69
> 75 = haglunds
angle of ruch
-combined value of CI and fowler philip angle
- > 90 is pos for haglunds
borders of Kagers triangle
-superior calc surface
-achilles
-long flexor tendons
which nerve is often implicated as a cause of inferior calcaneal pain
-nerve to abd digiti quinti
-aka Baxters nerve
primary structure that supplies venous drainage to the heel
-small saphenous vein
Duvries incisional approach for heel spur syndrome
medial horizontal approach
Miller and Vogel procedure
-used for Haglunds
-combines the Keck and Kelly with resection of the posterior superior prominence and uses internal fixation
-Keck and Kelly is only alone if high CI angle is present with no large prominence
what cystic lesion of the bone is seen in the calc
-unicameral bone cyst
which tarsal coalition has the highest prevalence
-middle STJ
best view for CN coaltion
medial oblique
how does a calc stress fracture appear on xray

-excision of accessory navi
