Biomechanical Assessment of Foot and Ankle - Physiopedia
The relationship of the forefoot to rearfoot is measured to quantify forefoot varus or forefoot valgus. To measure the relationship, the patient is prone lying with figure ‘4’ position for the non-examined lower extremity.
Evaluation of Hindfoot Varus and Valgus Conditions
2023年6月17日 · Hindfoot alignment is called valgus if the heel axis deviates away from the mid-axis of the body, or varus if the heel axis deviates toward the mid-axis of the body. Normal hindfoot alignment is between 3 and 5° of valgus. The valgus degree can be greater in women compared to men.
Radiographic Assessment of Pediatric Foot Alignment: - AJR
Both valgus and varus deformities are best evaluated on the anteroposterior projection. Equinus position results in superior elevation of the posterior part of the foot. With respect to the calcaneus, it is plantar flexed, anterior end lower.
Pediatric Foot Alignment Deformities - StatPearls - NCBI Bookshelf
2023年8月10日 · If the hindfoot assumes a neutral or slightly valgus position while standing on the block, it reveals hindfoot flexibility and forefoot fixed deformity. In contrast, if the hindfoot remains in a varus position while standing on the block, it reveals a fixed hindfoot deformity.
Understanding the foot’s functional anatomy in physiological and ...
The terms varus and valgus are often used to describe deformities in the forefoot and the hindfoot. They are frequently used interchangeably with the terms supination and pronation, inversion and eversion, and adduction and abduction. This is mostly due to the multiple biomechanical theories and concepts that have been applied to the foot. 1-5
Both valgus and varus deformities are best evaluated on the anteroposterior projection. Equinus position results in superior elevation of the posterior part of the foot. With respect to the calcaneus, it is plantar flexed, anterior end lower.
The Varus Ankle and Instability - Foot and Ankle Clinics
2011年12月14日 · Hindfoot alignment is observed during stance and includes inspection of soft-tissue conditions, for example, atrophy. Pelvic tilt, leg length discrepancies, and knee axis are assessed. Measurement of hindfoot alignment is performed …

Hindfoot varus. Smaller talo-calcaneal angle means the calcaneus is directed closer to the midline and there is hindfoot varus or supination with increased superimposition of the talus on the calcaneus. Hindfoot valgus. Larger talo-calcaneal angle means the calcaneus is directed further from the midline and there is hindfoot valgus or pronation.
Radiologic analysis of hindfoot alignment: Comparison of Méary, …
2017年12月1日 · Our results, in contrast, suggest that medial foot rotation may produce angle values in greater hindfoot varus on projection views, leading to values in greater valgus on the Méary view. Another hypothesis involves the fact that the Méary views were obtained separately for each foot, whereas both feet were imaged simultaneously for the LAV ...
3D measurement techniques for the hindfoot alignment angle
2022年10月7日 · Among the most common skeletal deformities, the varus/valgus of the hindfoot is the most complex to be represented, and a number of measure proposals have been published. This study aims to...
