The only existing classification of Müller-Weiss Disease (MWD), based solely on Méary's angle, serves neither as guide for prognosis nor treatment. This accounts for lack of gold standard in its management. Navicular compression, medial extrusion, Kite's angle and metatarsal lengths were measured on all radiographs of 95 feet with MWD. Joints involved, presence and location of navicular fracture were recorded.Background
Methods
This study analyzes position of the peroneal tendons and status of the superior peroneal retinaculum (SPR) whenever a lateral malleolar bony flake fracture occurs. Twenty-four patients had a lateral malleolar bony fleck on anteroposterior ankle radiographs, either in isolation or associated with other hindfoot injuries. We studied size of the bony flecks, presence or absence of peroneal tendon dislocation and pathoanatomy on CT scans.Background
