Today's foot and ankle edition covers four important studies spanning pain management, infection prevention, surgical techniques, and imaging assessment. We examine a novel compound for post-bunionectomy pain control, explore how ankle soft tissue thickness predicts infection risk after total ankle replacement, review outcomes of percutaneous first MTP arthrodesis, and investigate how measurement techniques affect hindfoot alignment assessment on weight-bearing CT.
