Seventeen horses diagnosed as having navicular syndrome on the basis of history, clinical findings, regional local anaesthesia and radiography were subjected to bilateral navicular suspensory desmotomy. Before surgery, the duration of navicular lameness ranged from 6 weeks to 4 years. Previous unsuccessful treatments prior to surgery included nonsteroidal anti-inflammatories, corrective shoeing, rest and isoxsuprine. For the seventeen horses subject to surgery, twelve horses were sound, one horse was improved and four horses were lame at a minimum of 6 months after surgery.

Optimizing injection accuracy for Baxter's nerve entrapment: an ultrasonography-guided approach based on anatomical surface landmarks.
Ann Med
December 2025
Catholic Institute for Applied Anatomy, Department of Anatomy, College of Medicine, The Catholic University of Korea, Seoul, Republic of Korea.
Introduction: The clinical feasibility and applicability of surface landmarks for Baxter nerve entrapment to proximal and distal sites is unclear. This study provides anatomical guidelines for optimal transducer placement using two specific landmarks, the most inferior tip of the medial malleolus (A) and the most protruding posterior tip of the calcaneus (B), to enhance the diagnostic and therapeutic injection efficacy for proximal and distal entrapment sites.
Materials And Methods: Eighty-six feet from 45 fresh cadavers (25 male and 20 female) were dissected to determine Baxter's nerve (BN) localization.
Mueller-Weiss Syndrome, a Rare Cause of Flatfoot: Case Report.

Introduction: There are numerous causes of flatfoot, among them osteonecrosis of the navicular bone, a rare disease known as Mueller-Weiss syndrome, also leads to deformity.
Case Report: A 53-year-old male presented to our Outpatient Department with pain and swelling over bilateral foot for 3 years with increased severity in the left. Physical examination as well as footprint revealed a bilateral flat foot, and there was tenderness as well as swelling over the dorsomedial aspect of bilateral foot.

Multicentric osteolysis nodulosis and arthropathy (MONA) is a rare skeletal dysplasia characterized primarily by progressive osteolysis, particularly affecting the carpal and tarsal bones, accompanied by osteoporosis. In addition, it features subcutaneous nodules on the palms and soles, along with the progressive onset of arthropathy, encompassing joint contractures, pain, swelling and stiffness. It is caused by a deficiency of the Matrix Metalloproteinase-2 (MMP2).

- The study aims to identify factors that lead to chronic regional pain syndrome (CRPS) in patients with non-displaced Sanders type 1 calcaneal fractures treated conservatively, focusing on the effects of Vitamin C supplementation.
- A review of medical records from 340 patients revealed that CRPS occurred in 12.4% of cases, with longer immobilization duration, higher smoking rates, more diabetes, and lower Vitamin C intake linked to increased risk of CRPS.
- The findings suggest that risk factors for CRPS include extended immobility, female sex, lack of Vitamin C supplementation, and the presence of diabetes and smoking habits.
