This article presents the indications, contraindications, preoperative surgical planning, surgical technique, and postoperative management of some of the most common percutaneous procedures in orthopedic foot and ankle surgery. The background of each procedure also is presented, supported by the latest in published literature to educate surgeons. Such topics include percutaneous bunionectomy, lesser toe deformity and bunionette correction, calcaneal osteotomy, cheilectomy, and first metatarsophalangeal joint arthrodesis.

Early mobilization program with nonweight-bearing brace improves functional capacity after diabetic foot ulcer surgery: a randomized controlled trial.
Langenbecks Arch Surg
January 2025
Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Beijing Shijitan Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University, Beijing, 100038, China.
Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of early mobilization program with nonweight-bearing braces in improving functional outcomes and clinical indicators after diabetic foot ulcer surgery.
Methods: We conducted a randomized trial involving patients with diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) who underwent surgery at a tertiary university hospital. Participants were randomized to receive either early mobilization with nonweight-bearing braces or standard rehabilitation care.
Comparison between unilateral and bilateral clubfoot treated with Ponseti method at walking age: static and dynamic assessment.

This study evaluated the static, postural, dynamic, and clinical outcomes among five groups of patients: a bilateral CTEV (congenital talipes equinovarus) group treated with tenotomy (n = 14), bilateral CTEV group treated conservatively (n = 6), unilateral CTEV group treated with tenotomy (n = 7), unilateral CTEV group treated conservatively (n = 3), and control group (n = 20). Data were collected through baropodometric examinations and clinical evaluations using Pirani, clubfoot assessment protocol, foot and ankle disability index (FADI), and American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society scores. Bilateral CTEV patients treated with tenotomy showed no statistically significant differences compared to healthy controls.

Background: A walking support orthosis known as the e-foot®, a rubber orthotic worn from the hip to the forefoot to enhance joint flexibility and movement, has been developed to assist elderly people and individuals with walking impairments. Despite its widespread acceptance and positive reception in some care settings, the precise impact of this device on gait dynamics remains unexplored. This study aims to bridge this gap by comparing the walking speeds of healthy volunteers using the e-foot® against their normal walking speeds.

Department of Orthopedics, Southwest Hospital, Army Medical University, Chongqing 400038, China.
Objectives: Adenosine deaminase (ADA) is a critical enzyme in the catabolism of adenosine acid during purine metabolism and plays a significant role in the diagnosis and monitoring of various diseases. This study aims to investigate the relationship between serum ADA levels and risk of diabetic foot ulcers (DFU) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), providing a clinical basis for the prevention and treatment of DFU.
Methods: A retrospective study was conducted on 2 719 T2DM patients diagnosed at the Southwest Hospital of Army Medical University from January 2019 to January 2020.
