I've a patient with a lateral instability who has gone to a orthopedic surgeon who told him that to be able to play soccer again needs a surgery.
Members do not see these Ads. Sign Up.
The lateral ligaments seems to be completly broken (lateral tilt test) and and he has a bilateral forefoot valgus of 3/4°. The knee is varus and the heel too.
Does he need surgery? A good orthotic (latel kirby's skive, denton modification, root orthotic for ff valgus,...) could support enough?
In case of sugery.....what do you all suggest? tendon's transfer? Heel osteotomy with lateralization?
Thanks for attemption
