    Maybe a radiographic sign of sinus tarsi syndrome? I don't have the article, but it would be interesting to see what they were looking at in the posterior facet of the STJ. Certainly a high stress area in aquired flatfoot. This assumes that the aquired flat foot is the result of posterior tibial dysfunction causing high medial forefoot loads which cause the medial arch to flatten and then allow the end or range of motion of the STJ at the floor of the sinus tarsi (posterior facet of the STJ) be the anatomical structure that stops pronation. Thus lateral hindfoot (?= sinus tarsi) pain. I wonder how well they describe the anatomy of where the pain is.... prior to surgery.

    Regards,
