Case Studies

Heel melanoma is uncommon, but its location on a weight-bearing surface makes it easy to miss. These three plantar heel cases underscore how delayed recognition can lead to invasive disease and nodal spread, while timely biopsy and...

Vibrio vulnificus necrotizing fasciitis is a rapidly progressive, often fatal soft tissue infection that demands immediate clinical recognition and decisive surgical management. This case underscores the limitations of relying on the LRINEC...

For patients with chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI) who lack conventional revascularization options, venous arterialization offers a potential path to limb salvage. While deep venous arterialization (DVA) has gained attention in recent...

Total talus replacement is emerging as a powerful salvage option for patients with advanced avascular necrosis (AVN), failed ankle arthroplasty, or end-stage ankle arthritis. This article explores the advantages of 3D-printed...

This case report describes a presumed hematogenous Campylobacter osteomyelitis of the hallux in an immunocompetent adult, complicated by coexisting crystal arthropathy and culture-negative findings.

As minimally invasive (MIS) bunion surgery continues to gain traction, variations in fixation strategy have prompted renewed discussion around complication profiles. This article reviews both established and evolving complications associated...

This case study highlights successful limb salvage in a high-risk diabetic patient who declined amputation.

This case demonstrates that isolated fifth metatarsal shaft fractures in healthy, active adults can potentially be managed conservatively with excellent outcomes.

Additives in injectable drugs, such as xylazine, have the potential to contribute to complex ulcerations. In this case report, the authors outline an interesting case exhibiting a clinical approach and sharing related treatment goals.

The technique described allows the surgeon to restore the Achilles tendon while augmenting the strength of repair with subsequent FHL transfer, avoids donor site morbidity, and addresses the weakness of the posterior musculature group.
