Abstract:
Objective To study the relationship between the rheumatoid arthritis (RA) flatfoot and flexor pollicis longus tendon (FHL) lesion.Methods A total of 120 rheumatoid arthritis flatfoot patients (120 feet) was admitted to our hospital,and were examined by uhrasonography.Foot flexor hallucis longus tendon lesions were analyzed.Theses patients were divided into intact tendon group (group A) with 48 cases,tendon inflammation group (group B) with 45 cases,and tendon rupture group (C group) with 27 cases according to the ultrasound flexor hallucis longus tendon lesions degree.Foot bearing radiographs of all patients were measured,and hallux valgus angle between the first and second metatarsal bones were measured,and the relationship between the flexor pollicis longus tendon lesion degree and hallux valgus angle were analyzed.Results There were 48 cases (40％)with normal FHL,45 cases(37.5％)with FHlL inflammation,and 21 cases(22.5％) with FHL fractures.It revealed that HVA was positively correlated with IMA in group A and B (P ＜ 0.05).But there was no correlation between HVA and IMA in group C (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion FHL is a common RA flatfoot disease,but FHL is not the initial cause of RA hallux valgus,but is positively correlated with the degree of hallux valgus.
