Sport-Specific Footwear Gives Kids a Boost: NYSPMA Podiatrist
Kids who are properly outfitted for the specific sport they’re playing have an edge, says Westchester-based podiatrist Dr. Charles Morelli, president of the Tappan Zee Division of the New York State Podiatric Medical Association. Dr. Morelli says picking the right shoe goes above and beyond just heading to the “athletics” section of the shoe store.
|
Dr. Charles Morelli |
“Buying a sport-specific shoe – a shoe designed for the exact sport your child will be participating in – not only improves your child’s performance on the court or field, but also helps keeps him or her free from serious foot and ankle injuries,” he says.

Scholl's Armstrong Gives Keynote for First Pan-Hellenic Diabetic Foot Symposium
David G. Armstrong, DPM, PhD, Professor of Surgery and Associate Dean at the Dr. William M. Scholl's Center for Lower Extremity Ambulatory Research at Rosalind Franklin University of Medicine and Science was the first keynote speaker at the March 27-29 Pan-Hellenic Diabetic Foot Symposium in Athens, Greece.

From Left: Profs. JM Boulton, David G Armstrong, Dr. Christos Manes, and Prof. Sir Karel Bakker |
The meeting, which brought together several hundred clinicians from more than a dozen countries around the Mediterranean, highlighted the importance of foot care in persons with diabetes. Standardizing training for various levels of foot specialists worldwide is critically important as we move forward," noted Dr. Armstrong.
The meeting featured two subsequent keynote addresses by Professor Andrew J.M. Boulton of the University of Manchester and Professor Sir Karel Bakker of the International Working Group on the Diabetic Foot. The key role of the podiatrist echoed throughout these sessions. "The most critical person on the team is the podiatrist", noted Dr. Bakker. "Yet podiatric physicians exist in only one country and podiatry as a field exists in less than two dozen of the more than 200 nations."

PODIATRISTS AND THE LAW |
Vaginal/Rectal Exams Within Podiatric Scope: CA Podiatrist
A podiatrist who massaged the breasts of an elderly patient, then inserted his finger into her vagina and her rectum, was following proper procedure in treating her for a sprained ankle, another foot doctor claimed in court Monday. Olympia Fields' physician Anthony Overton, 63, lost his license to practice last year after a string of women alleged he had subjected them to improper "physical exams."
|
Dr. Ivar Roth |
Testifying on Overton's behalf Monday, California-based podiatrist Ivar Roth told Judge Michael Toomin that podiatrists had been encouraged during the past decade to carry out full physical exams, rather than referring the patient to another doctor. A full physical exam included tests on the rectum and genitals, he said, and could be helpful in diagnosing several conditions. Podiatrists needed to practice often to keep their skills up-to-date, he said.
"There was a reluctance on the part of many podiatrists to carry out full physical exams," he said. "Clearly, this is a charged issue. "It will have its supporters and its detractors."
Source: Kim Janssen, Southtown Star [4/1/08]
Correction: Dr. Ivar Roth testified thst the podiatrist's license and training gave Anthony Overton the legal right to perform a breast, vaginal and rectal examination. He did not tell the court Overton's physical exam on the patient was proper procedure in treating her sprained ankle. Also, Roth was reading from a professional journal in some of the comments attributed to him.

QUERIES (CLINICAL) |
Query: Great Toe Fracture
This is a 15 year old pt that came into the office yesterday. He has a 5-month old fracture that has never been treated. The toe is red and swollen, but not painful. He injured it playing soccer and is concerned that it may affect his playing in the future. He plans on a college scholarship in soccer.

5 Months Status Post Hallux Fracture |
Would you leave it alone or perform surgery. If surgery is done would you simply remove the fracture fragment or try to reduce it and fixate it?

CODINGLINE CORNER |
Quey: Bilateral Injection Coding
I have a patient that I did bilateral injections for tarsal tunnel syndrome (confirmed by EMG). I billed diagnosis code, ICD-9 355.5 (tarsal tunnel syndrome) with the injections billed out as CPT 64450-RT and CPT 64450-50-LT (peripheral nerve block, therapeutic).
United Healthcare rejected the second injection, and stated that "this procedure code is not considered reimbursable as bilateral." What do I need to do to correct this?
Bob Kornfeld, DPM, Lake Success, NY
Response: Many injections codes do not allow the "-50" (bilateral procedures) modifier.
I would suggest coding the bilateral CPT 64450 codes, adding "LT" and "RT", respectively.
Tony Poggio, DPM, Alameda, CA

RESPONSES / COMMENTS (CLINICAL) ACTIVE |
Chronic Sub 2nd Met Head Ulcer (Judd Davis, DPM) From: Multiple Respondents
I think consideration could be made for a plantar condylectomy of the 2nd metatarsal head instead of complete excision. Your concern about transfer lesions is valid. By removing only part of the 2nd metatarsal head, you decrease the likelihood of a transfer lesion (as well as subsequent digital deformities). There will be some concern, however, for continuation of the ulceration. I have used plantar condylectomies for sub metatarsal lesions with good success.
Michael J. Hodos, DPM, Augusta, GA, mike@mikehodos.com
Dr. Davis’ patient has had loss of hallux purchase, and has transferred increased pressure to the second met. He has to get aggressive, and the ulcer will most definitely heal with metatarsal head resection. I cannot give you a percentage, other than you are 100% right to remove the 2nd metatarsal head, and control the foot post-operatively. Just debride the ulcer, teardrop the wound proximally slightly, and remove the met head with bone cutters from a plantar approach...very little additional surgical trauma, with minimal disruption of tissue. Carl Ganio, DPM, Vero Beach, FL, drcarlganio@bellsouth.net
I think it is important to make sure that the neuropathy is not a result of nerve entrapment which can be rectified by nerve decompression. This can prevent future breakdown. I also think you should not let a patient dictate the proper surgical course. A Weil osteotomy or something similar may be the best choice. The down-time is a few days off the foot. I think you run the risk of transfer lesion to the third especially given the 1st mpj is not working as it should. It looks like something was done there already so I am not sure how that may affect your choice. Peter J. Bregman, DPM, Tewksbury, MA, Footdoc@PAINFREEFEET.COM
I’m confused as to the choice of a Weil or a resection. I only keep my patients non-weight-bearing for a week after the Weil and would probably do the same or a little longer after a met head resection. What are your plans after resection of the met head and subsequent sub-sesamoid or sub-3rd met head ulceration. I’m assuming this will follow, as resection of the 2nd met head will make the sesamoid and/or 3rd met head most prominent. David Secord, DPM, Corpus Christi, TX, David5603@pol.net
RE: Patient with Decreased Sub-Q tissue from Repeated Steroid Injections From: Bret M. Ribotsky, DPM
I have been doing this and testing products for PSTTA (pedal soft tissue temporary augmentation) for over two years. This is not a technique that is easy to learn on one's own. Depth, volume amount, pressure reduction and product are all variables. There is over 120 different fillers available with only a few (~6) with FDA approval. There are different chemical products, different physical shapes and different mediums that these particles float travel in. Once you add weight-bearing, the factors change. Each product reacts differently. At the APMA annual meeting in Las Vegas in'06, I presented early data on using PSTTA. I have a research paper being finalized with case studies and two-year follow-ups. I will be sharing my learning curve with these products and I will be presenting some of this data at the Cherry Blossom Dermatology conference in Washington in May. I would be also very careful about importing a medical product for patient use that does not have FDA approval without an approved research project and an IRB approval.

RE: PM News’ April Fools Story From: John S. Steinberg, DPM
I congratulate Barry Block, DPM, JD on a well-orchestrated April Fool’s piece for PM News. I/Georgetown certainly got quite a laugh out of the creative writing and editorial liberty you took with it. How in the world you came up with that You Tube Jell-O video is equally impressive.
To answer the many emails I have already received, NO, those are not my feet in the video. Was the video perhaps produced in David Armstrong’s lab? Or perhaps this is what he does on those long plane rides to Dubai and Beijing... I guess we will find out all the truths in Hawaii at the PM Podiatry Hall of Fame Luncheon!
With a start like this, it’s clearly going to be a great April!

RESPONSES / COMMENTS APMA / ACFAS |
RE: ACFAS / APMA Membership Vote (Irvin Kanat, DPM) From: Multiple Respondents
Let me add my endorsement to Dr. Kanat's remarks. I have attached a file for your readers (http://www.podiatrym.com/letters2.cfm?id=18764&start=1) that documents the Federal Legislation developed by the American Podiatric Medical Association over the last four decades. Where would we be without this significant and continuing effort? What other group can match this effort?
Clearly the healthcare system will change after next November. We shall either be united an at the table to help develop the solution or we shall be divided and perhaps become part of the problem.
Arthur E. Helfand, DPM, Narberth, PA, Aehelfand@aol.com
As a former board member of ACFAS, the subject of separation of ACFAS from APMA was discussed at least twice between 1990 and 1997. After long discussions, each time calmer, cooler heads prevailed. Each time, it was felt the wisest result was to work together for the common good of the profession. To my recollection, APMA never seemed to communicate in a genuine fashion. It was the board of ACFAS that brought to light the insurance crisis of 1990 -91. It was the ACFAS that got APMA involved on the national level.
Having said this, I believed then and I believe now that the best solution is for the continuation of the ACFAS/APMA affiliation. I feel it is totally abhorrent that the ACFAS continue to send out propaganda to press their agenda.
If finances are an individual problems, then it is incumbent for both organizations to make some accommodations for those affected members.
Maybe some of those expensive "perks" that go along with board membership, in either organization, should be eliminated since it is the member who pays the freight. Are these individuals supposedly doing good of the profession? Power on either side is a dangerous thing. No matter the outcome of this anticipated ACFAS membership vote, I strongly suggest that every member vote and maintain his or her membership in both organizations.
Then, when the next election of officers is near find a slate of write-in candidates and elect them. You, the members, can elect the board members that will represent you in the manner you desire. Write-in candidates have won in the past and they can again.
D. Steven Ostendorf, DPM, Fort Meyers, FL, DSOSTEN@aol.com
I propose a solution to the ACFAS / APMA Membership Vote situation: The issues, as I see it are, APMA wants and needs the income ($$) that each member pays in order to provide the needed services that our profession must have. ACFAS wants to provide a mechanism for its members that are disenfranchised with either the local, state or nation APMA group. My solution is that ACFAS charge an additional $ 1,000 fee to anyone who wants to join ACFAS without joining APMA and send at least 90% this amount ($900) to APMA. This way, those members who for whatever reason do not want to join APMA, do not have too; and APMA does not suffer financially.
