@BostonFootAnkle@TheFootAnkleDoc @orthovulcano @FootAndAnkleMD@chicagofootMD My approach depends on what the MRI looks like T2 and fat suppressed sequences. If the tendon is healthy and not degenerate and hindfoot alignment ok - excise/debride calcification and speedbridge repair to foot print. If severe insertional changes then debride and FHL recon.
@northwoods1980 Definitely, in planning intervention for management. Although in my practice I would seek a set of weight bearing X-rays, long leg views to check for proximal mal alignment +/-weight bearing CTs. Depending on history a trip to local MDT to decide on evidence based treatment.
@northwoods1980 Leave alone the medial mal there’s so much to critique on this fixation and the fact that 3/12 on the cast is still on if I am not mistaken! As prejudiced and opinionated one can get on socials - hoping that there has been some sensible decision making.
Another kind gesture out of the blue. Thank you British Airways! I didn’t expect anything in return and an outpouring of gratitude from the crew and patient was enough having relocated their kneecap and avoiding a diversion. This is really generous! Now j…https://t.co/q69iyFWWJZ

@mum_on_bike Thanks for the help with fixing the broken bones. We kept the @HUHOrthopaedics service going smoothly. Better luck with the Christmas rota for us in the coming years!! 😁
@sportsfootankle Interesting technique, perhaps reserved for most recurrent of ingrown toes nails having failed previous attempts at excision and/or chemical ablation of nail beds. Thanks for sharing.
@BoneJointJ Strong piece of evidence to support use of flexible over rigid fixation of syndesmosis injuries. It also highlights the need to asses for and early diagnosis of isolated syndesmosis/AITFL injuries.
Thank you to @puresportsmed team at Chancery Lane for having me @TopLondonOrtho for a CPD session yesterday. Despite the sombre mood given we were able to have some good discussions on patient care and rehab @LondSportsOrtho. https://t.co/O08e4anaH2
