Objective: To investigate effects of Fibular Repositioning Taping (FRT) on lower extremity joint stiffness and angle during drop-landing. Method: Twenty-eight participants (14 healthy, 14 with chronic ankle instability [CAI]) performed drop-landings from a 60 cm box; three were performed prior to tape application and three were performed post-FRT. Three-dimensional kinematic and kinetic data were collected using an infrared optical camera system (Vicon Motion Systems Ltd. Oxford, UK) and force-plate (AMTI, Watertown, MA). Joint stiffness and sagittal angle of the ankle, knee, and hip were analyzed. Results: The hip [Healthy: p<.05; M ± SD: 29.43 ± 11.27 (pre), 33.04 ± 12.03 (post); CAI: p<.05; M ± SD: 31.45 ± 9.70 (pre), 32.29 ± 9.85 (post)] and knee [Healthy: p<.05; M ± SD: 53.44 ± 8.09 (pre), 55.13 ± 8.36 (post); CAI: p<.05; M ± SD: 53.12 ± 8.35 (pre), 55.55 ± 9.81 (post)] joints demonstrated significant increases in sagittal angle after FRT. A significant decrease in joint angle was found at the ankle [Healthy: p<.05; M ± SD: 56.10 ± 3.71 (pre), 54.09 ± 4.31 (post); CAI: p<.05; M ± SD: 52.80 ± 6.04 (pre), 49.86 ± 10.08 (post)]. A significant decrease in hip [Healthy: p<.05; M ± SD: 1549.16 ± 517.53 (pre), 1272.48 ± 646.73 (post); CAI: p<.05; M ± SD: 1300.42 ± 595.55 (pre), 1158.27 ± 550.58 (post)] and knee [Healthy: p<.05; M ± SD: 270.12 ± 54.07 (pre), 239.13 ± 64.70 (post); CAI: p<.05; M ± SD: 241.58 ± 93.48 (pre), 214.63 ± 101.00 (post)] joint stiffness was found post-FRT application, while no difference was found at the ankle [Healthy: p>.05; M ± SD: 57.29 ± 17.04 (pre), 59.37 ± 18.30 (post); CAI: p>.05; M ± SD: 69.15 ± 17.63 (pre), 77.24 ± 35.05 (post)]. Conclusion FRT application decreased joint angle at the ankle without altering ankle joint stiffness. In contrast, decreased joint stiffness and increased joint angle was found at the hip and knee following FRT. Thus, participants utilize an altered shock absorption mechanism during drop-landings following FRT. When compared to previous research, the joint kinematics and stiffness of the lower extremity appear to be different following FRT versus traditional ankle taping.

Posterior neck pain is a common complaint of patients in the pain clinic. The atlas (C1) burst fracture is known to be a cause of posterior neck pain and instability. Although the atlas burst fracture and instability can be discovered by plain X-rays which show lateral mass displacement or widening of the atlantodental interval, assessment of an atlas burst fracture can be difficult if there is no instability in the imaging study. Here we report a case of a 46-year-old female patient who had complained of sustained posterior neck pain for 6 months. Plain X-rays showed only disc space narrowing at C4/5 and C5/6, without any cervical instability. However, an unrecognized C1 lateral mass fracture was detected by CT and MRI. The patient's pain was then successfully treated after atlantoaxial joint injection with a C2 DRG block.

Background: This study aimed to investigate the effect of Y-balance exercise on spatio-temporal gait parameters in subjects with chronic ankle instability. Design: Randomized Controlled Trial. Method: A study was conducted on 43 people with chronic ankle instability. Subjects performed modified Y-balance exercise 3 times a week for 50 minutes, 4 weeks. Gait parameters were measured using a gait analysis treadmill before exercise, 2 weeks after exercise, and 4 weeks after exercise. A gait analysis treadmill (FDM-T AP1171, Zebris, Germany) was used to measure gait parameters. Mean values were compared using Repeated measured two-way ANOVA. Result:: When comparing the results of three measurements taken before exercise, 2 weeks after exercise, and 4 weeks after exercise, there were significant differences in the qualitative and quantitative aspects of gait in gait variables such as step distance, step time, step ratio, and sway ratio. Conclusions: These results suggest that the Y-balance exercise and various exercises combining balance and proprioception are effective for subjects with chronic ankle instability.

Knee is a middle joint in lower extremity and has relationship with hip joint and ankle joint alignment. Therefore the knee joint alignment is very important in aspect of biomechanically. Knee joint alignment depend upon patellar stability. Instability of the patellofemoral articulation, in the form of patellar subluxation or dislocation may be associated with a number of factors. Normal range of patellofemoral angle is very different by the reporter and by the gender also.

Cutting movements frequently occur in sports and influence much Lower Extremity injuries. The purpose of this study was to compare joint motion of lower extremities to cutting angles and running velocities. Seven male subjects performed cutting movements to three angles($0^{\circ}$, $30^{\circ}$, $60^{\circ}$). Subjects were instructed to run five meters at a speed of 2.5m/s and 4.5m/s before contacting their right foot on the force plate and then change direction to the left. The Peak hip, knee and ankle joint kinematics were influenced according to the running velocities and cutting angles. In conclusion, Fast running velocity and cutting angle will may influence on the lower extremity joint instability on real game situation.

Metatarsophalangeal joint dislocations are unusual, and especially most dorsal metatarsophalangeal joint dislocations can be easily reduced with closed manipuations. But we are reporting a case of irreducible traumatic dislocation of the fourth, fifth metatarsophalangeal joint with closed manipulation. So open reduction was performed. Fixation with Kirschner wire was necessary because of joint instability. This report demonstrates the phathology and the reason why closed manipulation failed.

Dislocation after a total hip arthroplasty occurs in approximately 1% of patients; however, the frequency is much higher after revision surgery. To prevent dislocation, use of a larger femoral head is recommended, and a dual mobility femoral head has been introduced. However, reducing the dual mobility femoral head to the acetabular component is difficult in cases involving contracture in the soft tissue around the joint. A 72-year-old male patient who developed a periprosthetic joint infection underwent two-stage revision surgery using MUTARS^®. Two months after the revision, the hip joint became dislocated and manual reduction was attempted; however, dislocation occurred again. During another revision using a dual mobility bearing, the soft tissue around the hip joint was too tight to reduce. The problem was overcome by first repositioning the dual mobility head into the acetabular socket, followed by assembly of the diaphyseal portion of the implant.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between hip abductor muscle strength and lumbar instability in patients with chronic low back pain. Methods: Fifty-two female patients were recruited for this study. The patients' history was recorded and was used to determine the general characteristics of the female complaints. The women were additionally examined to determine whether the level of pain was characteristic of patients with chronic lumbar instability. The following tests were also carried out in the subjects during the examination: 1) the prone instability test. 2) the test for aberrant movement patterns during lumbar flexion test. 3) the straight leg raising test. 4) posterior-to-anterior mobility test, and 5) the test for age and strength of the hip abductor muscle following assessment of the dominant side. In particular, hip abductor muscle strength was evaluated using a dynamometer. Results: The test results showed that the number of positive responses for the five types of lumbar instability tests performed, was significantly related to the strength of the hip abductor muscle. The average hip abductor muscle strength in total subjects was $72.89{\pm}7.66N$, whereas the average hip abductor muscle strength in subjects who showed positive responses to more than four out of the five tests, was $44.70{\pm}5.79N$. Conclusion: The results demonstrated that the hip abductor muscle strength and lumbar instability were negatively correlated. The lower was the strength of the hip abductor muscle, the higher was the possibility of lumbar instability.
