Background: To report the mid-term clinical results of endoscopic assisted surgery for patients suffering from chronic recalcitrant painful mid-portion Achilles tendinopathy who failed conservative management for at least ...

Surgical treatment remains the standard of care for active patients with acute midsubstance Achilles tendon ruptures. Minimal invasive surgery, rupture's site hematoma preservation, strong fixation, avoidance of sural nerve ...

Background: Plantar forefoot ulcers in individuals with diabetes often lead to deep infection and lower extremity amputation. increasing evidence suggests that the process is initiated by increased passive stiffness within ...
