Thirty-seven patients have been reviewed after arthrodesis of the ankle in order to determine the reduction of dorsiflexion and plantarflexion of the foot, the incidence of tarsal hypermobility and its relevance to the clinical results of this procedure. Radiological methods of measuring movements in the foot and tarsus are described and applied to patients who had a normal foot on the opposite side which could be used as a control. Our findings suggest that tarsal hypermobility is not as common as has hitherto been supposed and that a stiff foot with minor radiological degenerative changes in the tarsal joints is quite compatible with an excellent result.
为了确定踝关节融合术后足部背屈和跖屈的减少情况、跗骨活动过度的发生率及其与该手术临床结果的相关性，对37例患者进行了复查。描述了测量足部和跗骨运动的放射学方法，并应用于对侧足部正常可作为对照的患者。我们的研究结果表明，跗骨活动过度并不像迄今所认为的那样常见，并且跗骨关节有轻微放射学退变改变的僵硬足部与良好的手术结果是完全相符的。
