Talar neck rotation angle in adults with clubfoot deformity: Observed values and intra- and inter-observer reliability using weightbearing CT.

Introduction: Adults presenting with symptomatic clubfoot represent a challenging cohort of patients. An appreciation of the location and degree of deformities is essential for management. Talar anatomy is often abnormal with varus within the talar neck, however, there are few reproducible methods which quantify talar neck deformity in adults.

The awareness of hindfoot malalignment on non-weight-bearing ankle MRI.

Objective: Hindfoot malalignment is a relatively common clinical finding and several studies have suggested that hindfoot valgus can be identified on non-weight-bearing ankle MRI. The aim of this study was to determine the awareness of hindfoot malalignment on ankle MRI amongst consultant musculoskeletal radiologists.

Materials And Methods: All MRI studies referred by Foot and Ankle Unit Consultants reported by one of 14 consultant musculoskeletal radiologists between March 2016 and August 2019 were retrieved from the Hospital Radiology Information System.

Hip dysplasia screening - epidemiological data from Valcea County.

Rationale: :In its most severe form, developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is one of the most common congenital malformations. Uncorrected developmental dysplasia of the hip is associated with long-term morbidity such as gait abnormalities, chronic pain, and degenerative arthritis.

Aims: (1) to identify the risks and predisposing factors involved in DDH (2) to define the incidence of the disease locally; (3) to emphasize the importance of ultrasonography in early diagnosis of DDH.
