This prospective study used pulsed color-flow Doppler sonography to determine differences in the presence and direction of flow through the dorsalis pedis, posterior tibial, and peroneal arteries in a group of children with clubfoot and a comparison group of controls. There was a statistically significant difference in the prevalence of deficient (absent or retrograde flow) dorsalis pedis arteries in children with clubfoot (45%) compared with controls (8%). This indicates that there is an association between some clubfeet and deficiency of the dorsalis pedis artery. There was a trend toward difference in the prevalence of deficiency of the dorsalis pedis artery in the clubfeet that required surgery (54%) compared with those that did not (20%), suggesting that dorsalis pedis artery deficiency may be more prevalent among clubfeet with greater deformity.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the clinical efficacy of antibiotic-loaded bone cement (ALBC) combined with Negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) aspiration technique in the treatment of multidrug-resistant diabetic foot ulcers (MDRO-DFUs).
Methods: A retrospective analysis of the clinical data of 80 patients with MDROs-DFU who were used Vacuum sealing drainage (VSD) as NPWT excipient and met the inclusion criteria from January 2019 to January 2024 at our hospital. Patients were divided into an experimental group and a control group, with 40 cases in each.

Purpose: The surgical approach for midfoot injuries classically requires dual dorsal incision and identification of the neurovascular structures that are susceptible to injury during the surgery. The aim of this study was to map the topographic anatomy of the dorsum of the foot along with tarsal joints for the dorsal approach of midfoot surgery that would facilitate the surgery and minimize the risk of neurovascular injuries for surgeons who specially focus on foot and ankle injuries.
Methods: The dorsum of the foot was evaluated in 12 feet injected with latex containing a red colorant to visualize the arterial vessels.

Background And Purpose: Numerous studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of Chinese medicine injections (CMIs) in treating diabetic lower extremity arterial disease (Dia-LEAD). However, with the variety of CMIs available, it has become challenging to determine the optimal choice for Dia-LEAD patients. This study aims to compare and rank the efficacy of CMIs for Dia-LEAD to provide references and evidence for clinicians in optimising drug selection.
