Morphological and Functional Evaluation of Adult Flat Foot Before and After Corrective Surgery
Morphological and Functional Evaluation of Adult Flat Foot Before and After Corrective Surgery
Morphological weight bearing computed tomography parameters and gait analysis can implement
 the evaluation of the flat foot. Weight bearing CT is useful to verify the severity of the 3D
 deformities typical of flat foot, while kinematic and kinetic variables of gait is able to
 quantify the functional improvements of the foot after surgery.
Inclusion Criteria:

 -  patients with idiopathic flat foot with indication for corrective surgical treatment
 according to Grice (arthrodesis of the subtalar joint)

 -  age between 18 and 65 years

 -  BMI less than 40
