Gluteus medius tears of the hip: a comprehensive approach.

Greater trochanteric pain syndrome (GTPS) is a common clinical condition that can affect a wide range of patients. Historically, the condition has been associated with trochanteric bursitis. More recently, however, a growing body of literature has demonstrated gluteus medius tendinopathy and tearing is present in many cases of GTPS.

Hallux Valgus/Medial Column Instability and Their Relationship with Posterior Tibial Tendon Dysfunction.

Historically, bunions have focused on the coronal plane; however, there is tension and compression failure in the sagittal plane of the midfoot during arch collapse. Correction of all 3 planes of deformity, coronal, sagittal, and rotational, can be achieved in several ways. Taking a big picture of global foot mechanics by recognizing the common types of conditions associated with arch collapse, including hallux valgus deformities, can serve as a useful roadmap for navigating more complicated deformities where hallux valgus exists.
