Endoscopically Assisted Reconstruction of Posterior Tibial Tendon for Stage 2 Posterior Tibial Tendon Dysfunction
The posterior tibial tendon functions as a primary stabilizer of the medial longitudinal arch of the foot. Posterior tibial tendon dysfunction accounts for 80% of cases of adult-acquired flatfoot deformity. It is classified into 4 stages based on the function of the tibialis posterior tendon, the re...
