This new book consolidates the current knowledge of lower extremity
biomechanics and pathomechanics and makes this information relevant
to the study of common foot and ankle pathologies. The content is
presented in a language and format that allows the clinician to
review current evidence explaining the etiology of these disorders
in order to formulate effective treatment interventions. In order
to understand pathomechanics, the clinician must also become versed
in the normal, healthy biomechanics of the lower extremity. A
review of gait, muscle function and forces acting on the lower
extremities during physical activity will be the focus of the first
part of this book. The second part of the book will study the
common, challenging pathologies treated on a daily basis by foot
and ankle clinicians: hallux abducto valgus, hallux rigidus,
metatarsalgia, digital deformities, adult acquired flatfoot, and
plantar heel pain. These chapters discuss all the relevant factors
contributing to these conditions, evaluating and exposing myths and
misconceptions about the pathomechanics and treatments of these
conditions. For each disorder, a comprehensive review of published
research provides a foundation for an updated, valid description of
etiology and risk factors. Providing a fresh approach to lower
extremity pathomechanics and management strategies, Pathomechanics
of Common Foot Disorders is a valuable resource for podiatrists and
orthopedic foot and ankle surgeons at all levels.
