Postural stability of the body depends on many factors. One of them is physical activity. It is
especially important in the case of sports or professional work, which combine mobility with …

Background Symmetrical distribution of the load of the lower limbs and balance are among
the determinants of proper biomechanics of the musculoskeletal system. So far, it has not …

Background A number of various techniques were proposed to stabilized ankle arthrodesis,
among them external and internal fixation. Appropriate balance and adequate distribution of …

Introduction Normal balance and symmetric distribution of lower limb loads are associated
with adequate muscle strength, joint mobility and proprioception. The aim of this study was …

Results: Markedly higher values of the angle were noted in RA patients, reflecting the
presence of hallux valgus. Moreover, values of the angle were higher in patients in the …

Introduction Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic, inflammatory, connective tissue disease,
leading to foot deformities, impairment of locomotive functions, and reducing patients' quality …

Background Successful treatment of tibial nonunion should lead to a complete bone union,
lack of pain, and pathological mobility of the lower extremity, as well as to the achievement …

Background: The biomechanical outcomes of intra-articular calcaneal fracture treatment
have not been fully explored. The purpose of this study was to analyze pedobarographic …

Distortion of the axis and shortening of the limbs result in multiple musculoskeletal
pathologies. Rotation disorders should also be included among the disorders of the axis of …

The aim of this study was to comprehensively assess the gait parameters in patients who
had undergone treatment of pilon fractures by the Ilizarov method. We analyzed gait …
