Abstract
The authors present their views on the pathology and treatment of tibialis posterior tenosynovitis and ruptures. Defining the etiologic factor is an important first step when treating these patients, since neutralizing this deforming force is paramount. This condition is clearly associated with pathologic pes planovalgus and occurs as the tibialis posterior attempts to stabilize the hypermobile foot.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
