The 1996 Summer Olympic Games in Atlanta, Georgia, were the largest in Olympic history, with 197 countries participating. These Centennial Games also represented podiatry's greatest involvement in the Olympics to date. The author describes the planning, organization, delivery, and outcome of podiatric medical care in an Olympic Games setting and presents data to assist in the future utilization of podiatry in other multiday, multievent sport competitions.

The authors propose the use of the tricorrectional osteotomy for treatment of severe hallux limitus/rigidus as an alternative to joint-destructive procedures. A study of 19 patients with follow-up treatment ranges of 10 months to 6 years postoperatively was performed. Data were collected on preoperative and long-term postoperative x-rays, range of motion assessment, F-scan studies, and subjective patient questionnaires. High patient satisfaction along with increased range of motion, minimal complications, and an early return to activities make this an ideal procedure for grades II, III, and IV hallux limitus/rigidus.

The ability of foot care specialists to place a rearfoot at the subtalar neutral position is important for the care of patients who require foot orthosis prescription, fabrication, and management. Although some clinicians perform this procedure with the patient in the prone position, others prefer a seated or standing approach. This study examined whether patient position and preferred patient position influence the ability of clinicians to place a subject's rearfoot at the subtalar neutral position. The results suggest the following: a clinician's ability to find the subtalar neutral position is better with a seated subject; clinicians do not necessarily perform better assessments on a subject in a position corresponding to their patient position preference; and clinicians who prefer their patients prone generally have more flexible and reproducible observations. In addition, the findings suggest that the nature and relative importance of the tactile and visual cues used by clinicians to place a rearfoot at the subtalar neutral position warrant further exploration.
