CME OnDemand: 2022 AOFAS Annual Meeting-Factors Influencing Different Classes in Progressive Collapsing Foot Deformity

Factors Influencing Different Classes in Progressive Collapsing Foot Deformity

Video Transcription

Video Summary

In this video, Eli Schmidt, a medical student at the University of Iowa Carver College of Medicine, presents their project on Factors Influencing Different Classes in Progressive Collapsing Foot Deformity (PCFD). They discuss a new classification system for PCFD, which includes two stages (flexible and rigid) and five classes (A-E) with specific radiographic findings. The objective of the study is to assess the influence and impact of each PCFD class on the others by evaluating angular measurements. They found correlations between different measurements in each class, except for class E, suggesting the complexity and interdependence of PCFD. The study suggests that correcting a specific component may impact other aspects, potentially reducing the need for additional procedures. (No credits granted)
