Complex forefoot deformities are challenging to treat and are labor intensive for the surgeon and the patient. New minimally invasive surgery (MIS) shows great potential and in some instances outperforms traditional open surgery. Another advantage MIS has is that it is technically easier to perform (once proficient) and produces less pain and recovery for the patient. This article takes the reader through MIS preoperative planning, soft tissue considerations, the different osteotomy configuration options, rationale, transverse plane correction, sagittal plane correction, revision MIS surgery of malunions, metatarsus adductus correction, hybrid MIS correction, and postoperative bandaging and management.

Innovative equipment for lower limb muscle strength measurement: Design and application in sarcopenia screening.

Background: Grip Strength has been established as a practical and efficient method for screening and diagnosing sarcopenia. It is recognized that with advancing age, there is a more significant decline in lower limb muscle mass compared to the upper limb. However, due to the inherent complexity of assessing lower limb muscle strength compared to measuring Grip Strength, these assessments have not been universally adopted for sarcopenia screening.

Friction blisters are common among outdoor enthusiasts, yet their causes remain uncertain. This study aimed to compare foot hydration in long-distance hikers with and without blisters, and to assess variability based on age and sex. An observational case-control study involving 86 hikers was conducted.

Article Synopsis
- The study examines differences in foot deformities, specifically Progressive Collapsing Foot Deformity (PCFD) with and without Hallux Valgus (HV), using weightbearing computed tomography in patients aged 18 and over.
- Findings show that PCFD with HV exhibits greater angles and pronation at key joints compared to PCFD without HV, indicating significant structural variations.
- The results highlight important associations between HV deformity and specific foot angles, suggesting a need for targeted clinical assessment and treatment based on these deformities.

Introduction: Posterior ankle impingement is a common cause of chronic ankle pain. Although nonoperative treatment is initially preferred, there are surgical options if the symptoms are persistent. Minimally invasive arthroscopic procedures reduce surgical trauma and enable an early return to routine activities.
