What exam finding signifies a flatfoot deformity is flexible

Double heel rise, looking for inversion of the heels

100

What two structures are aligned to confirm adequate reduction

2nd digit with ipsilateral patella

100

Name the typical incision to access the lateral STJ

Ollier incision 

100

Subchondral bone is left intact on which bone 

talus due to soft bone compared to navicular, increases the strength of fusion construct 

100

neuroma on MRI

low T1, low T2

200

Most common displacement of Evan's wedge

Dorsal

200

Note the incision orientation for Talonavicular access

Medial gutter of the ankle to the navicular tuberosity

200

STJ axis 

42 sagittal 

16 transverse

200

The most common complication of TN AD and the common reason

1. non-union/malunion

2. poor prep of plantar/lateral joint secondary to poor visualization

200

Typical displacement of TMTJ and why

  • Dorsal subluxation/dislocation 

  • Weaker dorsal ligaments results in earlier failure

300

Incision placement for MDCO is important as the sural nerve travels approx ____ from the distal fibula?

14mm

300

CC joint positioning 

pushing the Cuboid superiorly to maintain lateral column length adn prevent abduction of forefoot

300

STJ arthroesis implant position of axis in foot

abduction and dorsiflexion 

300

An isolated talonavicular joint arthrodesis will limit rearfoot ROM by approximately how much?

90%

300

The dynamic stabilizer of the 1st ray acts to?

Position the first ray/medial column in eversion and elevate the talus

400

The calcaneal slide osteotomy should be oriented in what position

45 degrees to WB surface

400

Name the order of recommended joint preparation followed by the order of arthrodesis

Prep: CC, STJ, TN

Desis: STJ, TN, CC

400

STJ arthrodesis in neglected calcaneal fractures requires 

re establishing height and frontal plane alignment of heel

400

Disruption of which ligament would increase chances of non union in talus

Deltoid ligament due to disruption of deltoid arcuate artery located within the deltoid ligament

400

What tendon is at risk with Mau osteotomy?

Peroneus longus insertion

500

What orientation should the screws in an MDCO be and why?

DIVERGENT; allows for rotational stability

500

Sliding the calcaneus anteriorly will result in

Dorsiflexion of forefoot on rearfoot and decreases arch height 

500

Your 7.0mm x 65mm partially threaded Fixios screw is not demonstrating compression across the STJ during arthrodesis. What technique will you initiate and how will you do perform this in the OR?

1. Lag by technique

2. Overdrill with 7.0mm drill to the joint line

500

MRI can be used to evaluate two things:

1. soft tissue involvement (PTT/spring ligament)

2. AVN/Stress Fx

500

biopsy revealed: chronic inflammatory cells, hemosiderin- laden macrophages and scattered giant cells, fluid filled levels on MRI
