"posterior tibial tendon dysfunction (tenosynovitis, tendinosis, partial or complete tears)"
"A spring ligament injury refers to stretching, partial or complete tear of the spring ligament complex that acts as a static stabiliser of the medial longitudinal arch 1. It can affect one or more of the following ligamentous portions 1-3:"
"As in other ligament injuries, imaging features in a plantar calcaneonavicular injury include ligament thickening or thinning, contour irregularities, inhomogeneity, partial or complete discontinuity as well as signal intensity changes especially on fat-suppressed T2-weighted or intermediate weighted sequences of one or more of the three ligamentous components 1-3."
"Surgical options include direct repair with sutures or spring ligament reconstruction techniques with anterior deltoid ligament graft, the use of a posterior tibial tendon stump, peroneal or split tibialis anterior tendon graft, and reconstruction of the posterior tibial tendon if applicable 1,2."
