Mid-term outcomes of talar neck trapezoidal osteotomy for correction of severe rigid neurologic equinovarus foot.
Foot Ankle Surg

Neuro-Orthopedic Unit, Orthopaedic Surgery and Traumatology Department, Hospital Infantil Universitario Niño Jesús, Madrid, Spain.
Background: Severe rigid neurologic equinovarus foot (NEVF) deformity, though rare, significantly limits transfers and orthotic use in pediatric patients with neurological disorders. Standard treatments like arthrodesis or talectomy are highly invasive, especially in young patients. This study assesses the mid-term outcomes of a talar neck trapezoidal osteotomy (TNTO) to correct severe NEVF in non-ambulatory patients.

Background: Foot orthoses have been considered to affect static and dynamic functional capacity and could help older adults maintain balance while walking. However, the impact of textured foot orthoses over co-contraction strategies remains uncertain. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the effect of different textured foot orthoses on ankle and knee joint muscle co-contraction in male and female older adults during walking.

Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to analyze how antiphase trunk motion affects quiet stance stability without changes in visual or surface conditions.
- Wearing a rigid orthotic brace that limited trunk motion, researchers compared sway characteristics across different brace conditions.
- Findings revealed that allowing antiphase motion reduced trunk and leg sway velocities and highlighted the relationship between trunk movement and ankle torque, suggesting that this motion is crucial for maintaining balance, especially in predicting postural issues due to various factors.

JBJS Case Connect
October 2024
Department of Spine Surgery, Hospital for Special Surgery, New York, New York.
Case: We present a marginal mandibular branch of the facial nerve palsy that occurred in a 55-year-old woman from external compression of a rigid cervical collar. This nerve palsy occurred after less than 24 hours of collar utilization and was treated conservatively with delayed recovery.
Conclusion: A marginal mandibular branch of the facial nerve palsy is a rare complication of cervical collar usage with only 1 other documented case in the literature.
