Introduction: Posterior tibial tendon dysfunction is one of the most common, problems of the foot and ankle. Tenosynovitis of the posterior tibial tendon (PTT) is an often unrecognized form of PTT dysfunction. Case: A 54-year-old woman presented with left ankle pain that began while morning walk three days prior. She noted that the left ankle hurt with even light touch and the pain was unrelieved with sodium diclofenac. She denied any history of trauma. She was seen in the outpatient clinic for this condition. On examination, a three centimeter area of pain was found posterior to the medial malleolus and parallel to the PTT. She also had a stage I flat foot and mild soft tissue swelling around medial malleolus region on her radiograph examination. Ultrasound examination was done with the result of anechoic fluid visible in the peritendinous space around the PTT. The patient received diagnosis of PTT tenosynovitis, with the foot and ankle disability index (FADI) score was 58.7. Platelet rich plasma (PRP) injection was done twice with an interlude of two weeks. The pain subsided and the following FADI score was 84.6. Outcome: Patient showed improvement in her left ankle PTT tenosynovitis after two PRP injection. Conclusion: This case report highlights the efficacy of PRP as a modality in managing PTT tenosynovitis.

The purpose of the study was to evaluate the efficacy of subtalar arthroeresis for II stage tibial tendon dysfunction by Johnson and Storm classification. From November 2007 to August 2009, 18 patients with that pathology were operated on. After implantation of Kalix® II endorthesis the plasty of posterior tibial tendon was performed. The results were assessed by American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) scores system. After treatment average estimate by AOFAS increased from 47.2 before operation to 79.0 after surgery, pain index from 16.3 to 30.0, foot function from 28.7 to 41.6, foot position from 2.6 to 8.4. According to X-ray data the longitudinal arch angle decreased by 14.3° at an average and talar-calcaneal angle by 8°. Study results showed that technique of subtalar arthrodesis was effective enough for correction of flat foot resulted from II stage posterior tibial tendon dysfunction. Combination of that technique with tendon plasty ensured the full-value reconstruction of the foot.

ABSTRACT Objectives Posterior tibial tendon dysfunction (PTTD) affects the support of the medial longitudinal arch and stability of the hindfoot. The purpose of this study was to assess the relationships of PTTD with foot and ankle functions and foot deformities in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Methods A total of 129 patients (258 feet) who underwent magnetic plain and contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging were enrolled in this study. Positive magnetic resonance imaging findings were defined as tenosynovitis and incomplete and complete rupture of the posterior tibial tendon. Foot and ankle functions were assessed using the Japanese Society for Surgery of the Foot standard rating system for the RA foot and ankle scale (JSSF-RA) and self-administered foot evaluation questionnaire. Plain radiographs were examined for the hallux valgus angle, first metatarsal and second metatarsal angle, lateral talo-first metatarsal angle, and calcaneal pitch angle. Results PTTD was associated with motion in the JSSF-RA (p = .024), activities of daily living in JSSF-RA (p = .017), and pain and pain-related factors in the self-administered foot evaluation questionnaire (p = .001). The calcaneal pitch angle was significantly lower in the feet with PTTD than in those without PTTD (median: 16.2° vs. 18.0°; p = .007). Conclusions The present study shows that PTTD was associated with foot and ankle functions and flatfoot deformity. Thus, a better understanding of PTTD in patients with RA is important for the management of foot and ankle disorders in clinical practice.

It has been well supported in the literature that using compression screws is the preferred method to achieve fixation of an arthrodesis [1, 2]. Indications for isolated subtalar arthrodesis include trauma, arthritis, talocalcaneal coalition, adult acquired flatfoot, posterior tibial tendon dysfunction, and Charcot neuroarthropathy [3, 4]. With the increase in bone screw shapes and designs, there is a desire to achieve the best compression generated by a type of screw so as to promote excellent bone healing and outcome for the patient; this will also allow the stability of the construct achieved by the screw and its placement to be determined. As indicated by Wheeler, et. al.[5] screw choice, compression, stability and loading can be very important when it comes to healing of fractures in small bones.

Context: Clinically, it has been suggested that increased activation of intrinsic foot muscles may alter the demand of extrinsic muscle activity surrounding the ankle joint in patients with stage II posterior tibial tendon dysfunction. However, there is limited empirical evidence supporting this notion. Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of a 4-week short-foot exercise (SFE) on biomechanical factors in patients with stage II posterior tibial tendon dysfunction. Design: Single-group pretest–posttest. Setting: University laboratory. Participants: Fifteen subjects (8 males and 7 females) with stage II posterior tibial tendon dysfunction who had pain in posterior tibial tendon, pronated foot deformity (foot posture index ≥+6), and flexible foot deformity (navicular drop ≥10 mm) were voluntarily recruited. Intervention: All subjects completed a 4-week SFE program (15 repetitions × 5 sets/d and 3 d/wk) of 4 stages (standing with feedback, sitting, double-leg, and one-leg standing position). Main Outcome Measures: Ankle joint kinematics and kinetics and tibialis anterior and fibularis longus muscle activation (% maximum voluntary isometric contraction) during gait were measured before and after SFE program. Cohen d effect size (ES [95% confidence intervals]) was calculated. Results: During the first rocker, tibialis anterior activation decreased at peak plantarflexion (ES = 0.75 [0.01 to 1.49]) and inversion (ES = 0.77 [0.03 to 1.51]) angle. During the second rocker, peak dorsiflexion angle (ES = 0.77 [0.03 to 1.51]) and tibialis anterior activation at peak eversion (ES = 1.57 [0.76 to 2.39]) reduced. During the third rocker, the peak abduction angle (ES = 0.80 [0.06 to 1.54]) and tibialis anterior and fibularis longus activation at peak plantarflexion (ES = 1.34 [0.54 to 2.13]; ES = 1.99 [1.11 to 2.86]) and abduction (ES = 1.29 [0.50 to 2.08]; ES = 1.67 [0.84 to 2.50]) decreased. Conclusions: Our 4-week SFE program may have positive effects on changing muscle activation patterns for tibialis anterior and fibularis longus muscles, although it could not influence their structural deformity and ankle joint moment. It could produce a potential benefit of decreased tibialis posterior activation.

In rheumatoid arthritis, a significant number of patients have hindfoot pain while they are considered in low disease activity. Then the rheumatoid hindfoot may evolve in valgus flat foot with disability. The aim of our study was to observe the lesions of the main stabilizers of the hindfoot in rheumatoid arthritis to improve the followup and the treatment of the disease. Thirty-three feet (from 21 patients) with rheumatoid arthritis and pain of the hindfoot were consecutively observed. The patients have had no biologic treatment. Every foot had Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) of the hindfoot with gadolinium injection. The tendon of the tibialis posterior muscle, the spring ligament and the inter-osseous talocalcaneal ligament were considered. All the feet presented tenosynovitis of the posterior tibial tendon. Structural lesions of the posterior tibial tendon (23/33 feet, 69.7%) were more frequent than lesions of the spring ligament (12/33 feet, 36.4%). There was no inferior spring ligament lesion without superior spring ligament lesion. No interosseous talocalcaneal ligament lesion was observed. In rheumatoid arthritis, the hindfoot, and particularly the posterior tibial tendon, should be evaluated during patient follow-up to detect a possible lesion. Posterior tibial tendon lesion arises at the same time as the spring ligament lesion, before interosseous talocalcaneal ligament lesion. Imaging, especially MRI, may complete clinical examination. If rheumatoid involvement of the posterior tibial tendon is observed, treatment intensification is required.

Objective: To investigate whether orthotic treatment is effective for the treatment of posterior tibial tendon dysfunction stages I and II (flat foot). Data Sources: Five databases (PubMed, Scopus, PEDro, SPORTDiscus and The Cochrane Library) were searched for potential RCTs from their inception until August 2020. Review Methods: Only randomised controlled trials (RCT) that included subjects diagnosed with posterior tibial dysfunction in the initial stage and treated with orthotic treatments were selected. The outcomes assessed were whatever symptom related to posterior tibial tendon dysfunction stage I and II. Included RCTs were appraised using the Cochrane collaboration risk of bias tool. Results: Four RCT articles and 186 subjects were included. 75% were at high risk of bias for blinding of participants and personnel. Three different types of conservative treatment were used in the studies: foot/ankle-foot orthoses, footwear and stretching /strengthening exercises. Foot orthoses, together with exercise programmes, seemed to improve the effect of orthotic treatment. Foot orthoses with personalised internal longitudinal arch support were more effective than flat insoles or standard treatments in reducing pain. Conclusions: The use of orthotic treatment may be effective in reducing pain in the early stages of posterior tibial tendon dysfunction. Further research is needed into individualised orthotic treatment and high-intensity monitored exercise programmes.

Abstract Rupture of tibialis posterior tendon is a known cause of acquired flat foot but the diagnosis is missed or delayed in most of the cases. It may lead to significant morbidity. We present a case of 13 years old boy with history of blunt trauma to his left foot one year back and presented with pain medial aspect of right foot and difficulty in prolonged walking and running. Clinically he had a flat and hyperpronated foot. His x-rays were normal and MRI revealed partial tear of posterior tibial tendon. He was recommended medial arch support, shoe modification, NSAIDs and referred to orthopedic surgeon for repair. Posterior tibialis tendon dysfunction is one of the concealed injuries that require earliest diagnosis and immediate attention, failing which the outcomes can have debilitating effects on patient's quality of life. This is important to prevent foot deformities and long term disability.
