본 연구는 일상생활에서 흔히 접하게 되는 시설물 중 낙상의 위험이 큰 계단과 경사로 오르기 동안 젊은 성인과 노인들의 압력중심이동 경로와 족저압 변화에 대해 알아보았다. 측정도구는 MatScan system(Tekscan, USA)을 사용하였다. 보행 조건(평지 보행, 계단 오르기, 경사로 오르기)에 따른 족저 영역별 족저압의 차이를 알아보기 위해 일원배치분산분석(One-way ANOVA)을 사용하였다. 압력중심 이동경로는 젊은 성인의 경우 평지 보행과 비교해 계단 오르기에서 조금 짧아졌으며 전족부에서는 외전하는 경향이 나타났다. 경사로 오르기에서는 대체적으로 내전되는 경향이 나타났고 특히 입각기 말기에 엄지발가락으로 압력중심이 이동하였다. 노인의 경우 평지 보행과 비교해 계단 오르기에서 압력중심 이동 경로가 짧아졌으며 앞뒤로 이동이 많았으며 전족부에서는 외전되었다. 경사로 오르기에서는 압력중심이 좌우로 이동하는 경향이 나타났다. 족저 영역별 최고 족저압은 젊은 성인의 경우 평지보행과 비교해 경사로 오르기 에서 2-3번째 중족골두 영역과 후족부 영역의 최고 족저압이 유의하게 감소하였다. 노인의 경우 첫 번째 중족골두 영역은 계단 오르기에서 최고 족저압이 증가하고 경사로 오르기에서 최고 족저압이 감소하였고, 두 번째 중족관절 영역과 후족부 영역은 평지 보행과 비교해 경사로 오르기에서 최고 족저압이 감소하였다. 같은 기울기의 계단과 경사로 오르기 동안 최고 족저압은 대체적으로 경사로 오르기에서 변화가 크게 나타났다.

Purpose: To analyze the radiographic results between the simple bone excision and simple bone excision and posterior tibial tendon advancement for prehallux. Materials and Methods: Thirty-four patients who underwent operative treatment for prehallux between 1995 and 2000 were reviewed. Twenty-six patients who underwent simple bone excision and posterior tibial tendon advancement and eight patients who underwent simple bone excision were available for follow-up. Follow-up averaged 44 months(15-59 months). We evaluated and compared the cuboidal height and the talo-1st metatarsal angle in the preoperative and postoperative radiography. Results: The average span of disappearing pain is 3.7 months(2-7 months) after the operation. Mean cuboidal height and talo-1st metatarsal angle were increased $6.7{\pm}1.8mm$, $5.0{\pm}2.1^{\circ}$ before to $7.8{\pm}0.2mm$, $5.6{\pm}0.7^{\circ}$ after simple bone excision and posterior tibial tendon advancement. Mean cuboidal height and talo-1st metatarsal angle were increased $6.6{\pm}0.7mm$, $4.6{\pm}1.1^{\circ}$ before to $7.7{\pm}0.9mm$, $5.1{\pm}0.4^{\circ}$ after simple bone excision and posterior tibial tendon advancement. One case of extra-osseous migration of the Mitek anchor inserted into navicula was seen during the follow-up period. Conclusion: This study shows that the remarkable differences between the two procedures are not found. So, simple bone excision without advancement of posterior tibial tendon for prehallux can generate relatively good results.

Purpose: To analyze the outcome of metatarsal lengthening of first brachymetatarsia by callotasis using an external fixator. Materials and Methods: Between January 1998 and February 2004, 10 patients (17 cases) were reviewed. The mean age at operation was 17.3 years. Seven patients had bilateral first brachymetatarsia and eight patients had combined 4th brachymetatarsia. The operations were performed with a monoexternal fixator, and distraction was started at a rate of 0.75 mm/day after 7 days. The radiographic results were evaluated by lengthening amount and percentage, fixation time, and healing index. Complications and AOFAS score were evaluated. Results: The average lengthening amount was 17.7 mm and the average lengthening percentage was 43.4%. The external fixation time was 107 days and average healing index was 69.8 days/cm. The evaluation according to AOFAS score was excellent in 12 cases and good in 5 cases. Complications were 4 cases of hallux valgus, 4 of metatarsophalangeal joint stiffness, 3 of medial angular deformity, 3 of pes cavus, 2 of pin breakage, 2 of pin site infection, and 1 of skin hyperpigmentation. Conclusion: Callotasis for 1st brachymetatarsia is a very useful treatment method with high patient satisfaction, excellent healing rate and early ambulation without bone graft. Nevertheless, great care must be taken to minimize the various possible complications.

Purpose: To present our experience of distal chevron osteotomy utilizing one BOLD $screw^{(R)}$ as an alternative fixation method which has advantages over the Kirschner (K)-wire fixation. Materials and Methods: Between January 2001 and June 2003, 19 patients with a symptomatic hallux valgus deformity underwent 20 distal metatarsal chevron osteotomies with one BOLD $screw^{(R)}$ fixation. The mean age was 55.6 years with a minimum follow up period 12 months. For radiographical evaluation, hallux valgus angle (HVA) and intermetatarsal angle (IMA) were used. For clinical evaluation, we used AOFAS hallux metatarsophalangeal interphalangeal scale and overall satisfaction of the patients. Results: The AOFAS scores improved from mean 47.5 points to mean 68.1 points at postoperative 3 months and mean 86.0 points at last follow-up. The average HVA corrected from 25.3 degrees to 12.7 degrees. The IMA was corrected from 11.6 degrees to 7.6 degrees. The overall satisfaction of the patients was 85%. There was no major complication. Conclusion: We demonstrated that distal chevron osteotomy with one BOLD $screw^{(R)}$ fixation has advantages such as no additional procedure, no loss of correction, early rehabilitation, no prominent hardware and skin irritation. This method also showed excellent bone union, correction and patient satisfaction.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate retrospectively the clinical results of closed reduction and percutaneous screw fixation for unstable injuries on stress radiographs in subtle injuries of Lisfranc joint. Materials and Methods: From June 1997 to March 2003, 6 cases of unstable injuries on stress radiograph in subtle injuries of Lisfranc joint were treated by percutaneous cannulated screw fixation after closed reduction. All cases were injuried by indirect force (twisting injury). The average diastasis between the 1st and 2nd metatarsal base was 3 mm (2-4 mm) on initial nonweight bearing AP radiograph. The average follow-up period was 20 months. Clinical evaluation was assessed according to the American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) midfoot score. Results: The AOFAS midfoot score was average 86 (80-90) points. The average diastasis between 1st and 2nd metatarsal base was 2 mm (1-3 mm) on weight bearing AP radiograph in final follow up. The final diastasis was increased slightly than diastasis in initial postoperative radiographs. But the clinical results were good. There was no correlation between the degree of diastasis and the clinical results. On weight bearing lateral radiograph, the average difference with normal foot in the distance between plantar aspect of 5th metatarsus and medial cuneiform was 2 mm (0-3 mm). One case had mild arthritic change on the radiographs. Conclusion: When the Lisfranc injuries, especially in the subtle injuries were suspicious, the stress views are helpful to assess stability of the Lisfranc injuries and planning of treatment. For unstable injuries on stress radiographs in subtle injuries of Lisfranc joint, closed reduction and percutaneous screw fixation is useful method to expect good clinical results.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the radiological characteristics of the osteoarthritis of the second metatarsophalangeal (MTP) and tarsometatarsal (TMT) joint. Materials and Methods: Between January 2002 and August 2010, 27 patients (33 feet) who had second metatarsal osteoarthritis (OA) were reviewed retrospectively. Group 1 was 14 patients (17 feet) with second MTP joint OA. Group 2 was 13 patients (16 feet) with second TMT joint OA. Group 3 was 24 patients (25 feet) had hallux valgus without second metatarsal (MT) OA as control. Weight bearing foot anteroposterior (AP) and lateral view were checked, and measured hallux valgus angle, metatarsus adductus angle (MAA), second MT functional length, first and second MT length by Hardy & Clapham method on AP view, angle of second MT with horizontal plane, calcaneal pitch, talo-first MT on lateral view. Results: On weight bearing foot AP view, second MT functional length of group 1, 2, 3 was 2.4 mm, -0.1 mm, 0.7 mm and MAA of group 1, 2, 3 was $17.7^{\circ}$, $17.7^{\circ}$, $14.5^{\circ}$. Second MT functional length of group 1 was longer than control group and it was statistically significant. MAA was significant different between group 1-3 and group 2-3. Angle of second MT with horizontal plane of group 2 was smaller than control group and it was statistically significant. Other radiographic parameters have no statistical significance. Conclusion: Group 1 has long functional length of second MT and group 2 has small angle of second MT with horizontal plane.

Purpose: The aim of the current study is to report on the clinical and radiographic results after calcaneo-stop procedure in Korean children with symptomatic flexible flatfoot. Materials and Methods: Twenty-two children suffering pain along the medial aspect of midfoot with flexible flatfoot whose symptoms did not improve with conservative measures and therefore underwent calcaneo-stop procedure were identified retrospectively. Clinically, American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) ankle-hindfoot scale and visual analogue scale (VAS) were evaluated. Radiographically, standing anteroposterior and lateral radiographs of the foot and Saltzman's alignment views were taken and talonavicular coverage angle, lateral talo-first metatarsal angle, and hindfoot alignment angles were measured and analyzed. Results: Clinically, AOFAS ankle-hindfoot scale improved from $70.3{\pm}5.6$ to $97.3{\pm}2.5$ and VAS improved from $6.4{\pm}1.6$ to $0.2{\pm}0.4$. Radiographically, talonavicular coverage angle improved from $28.3^{\circ}{\pm}12.3^{\circ}$ to $10.9^{\circ}{\pm}8.1^{\circ}$, lateral talo-first metatarsal angle improved from $-19.3^{\circ}{\pm}9.0^{\circ}$ to $-2.4^{\circ}{\pm}8.1^{\circ}$, and hindfoot alignment angle improved from valgus $11.9^{\circ}{\pm}10.0^{\circ}$ to $3.5^{\circ}{\pm}4.3^{\circ}$ at minimum 2-year follow-up. No complications occurred postoperatively. Conclusion: Calcaneo-stop procedure is a simple and very effective procedure for management of pediatric symptomatic flexible flatfoot that does not respond to conservative treatment.
