본 연구의 목적은 종아리 근육에 마사지를 적용하여 발목의 유연성과 균형에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 실시하였다. 연구대상자는 건강한 대학생 32명으로 마사지 적용방법에 따라 세 그룹으로 나누어 한쪽 종아리에 각 5분간, 총 10분 동안 마사지를 적용하였다. 마사지 적용 전, 후로 발목의 유연성을 측정하기 위하여 Star excursion balance test를 실시하였다. 종아리 근육 마사지 중재 후에 두 그룹 모두 기능적 뻗기 검사와 변형된 한발 서기 검사에서 마사지전보다 유의하게 증가한 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 마사지 종류에 따른 차이는 나타나지 않았다. 마사지 종류에 관계없이 종아리 근육 마사지는 발목관절의 유연성과 균형능력에 효과가 나타났다. 따라서 종아리 마사지의 적용은 균형능력을 향상시키는 방법으로 보인다.

The effect of kinesio taping in patients with common peroneal nerve paralysis (PNP) have not been investigated. This purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of kinesio taping on patients with common PNP. Ten subjects who had common PNP were included in this study. Kinesio taping was applied to the ankle joint (direction of dorsiflexion and eversion). The measurements were by manual muscle test (MMT; tibialis anterior, peroneus longus), active ROM (ankle dorsiflexion, eversion), pain (visual analogue scale (VAS), pressure pain threshold (PPT)), and balance (one leg standing). Subjects were assessed at baseline and 8 weeks of intervention. In the results, all subjects showed improvements in MMT, active ROM, Pain and balance at the 8-week. These findings are considered to be effective in applying kinesio taping on ankle joint in common PNP patients.

This study examined the effect of the application of Theratainment physical factors on the calf blood pressure, ankle angle, and calf circumference. A research sample consisting of normal female university students in their twenties were divided into hot therapy group (n=20), cold therapy group (n=20), and compression therapy group (n=20). By referring to the previous study, 20-minute hot therapy, 15-minute cold therapy, and 30-minute compression therapy with 100mmHg intensity was applied. The therapy was applied to left-side lower limb, followed by the application on the right-side lower limb after an hour of resting time. The calf blood pressure, ankle angle, and calf circumference of each group was assessed. In the study results, hot therapy and compression therapy showed a statistically significant difference on the decrease of blood pressure and increase of ankle angle (p<.05), but cold therapy produced no statistically significant difference. None of the three groups showed a statistically significant difference on the calf circumference. Hence, hot therapy and compression therapy is recommended for reducing calf blood pressure and increasing ankle angle related to the calf. These therapies are expected to be used for solving diverse problems of lower limbs.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of wearing functional clothing over calf muscles on the muscle function of the calf and to verify whether functional clothing can increase calf muscle function. The participants of the study were 21 male students from University B who had no lower extremity abnormality. The measurement method was measured at 30°/sec and 120°/sec angle speed before and after wearing functional clothing on the right and left calves using Humac Norm of CSMI, a constant speed muscle function measuring instrument. No significant difference was observed during dorsiflexion when wearing functional clothing, but in plantar flexion, muscle strength and muscle endurance were significantly increased. Therefore, wearing functional clothing over the calves showed a positive effect on improving exercise function, and future research suggests a study comparing the degree of muscle function improvement between those wearing functional clothing and those not wearing it for athletes training ahead of the competition.

가을은 단풍 산행을 위해 산을 찾는 사람들이 많아지는 계절이다. 등산은 심폐와 온몸의 근육과 인대를 강화시키는데 효과적인 운동이지만, 등산 전 몸 상태에 대한 점검 없이 무리한 등산을 할 경우 평소 약해진 다리 혈관이 늘어난 혈액량을 감당하지 못해서 건강을 해칠 수가 있다. 더욱이 등산을 즐기는 중장년층이라면 종아리 근육의 탄력이 약화되어 정맥혈관이 확장되는 정맥류가 발생할 가능성이 높고, 이미 정맥류가 있는 경우라면 악화될 수 있다.

Peroneal neuropathy presenting at birth is a rare disorder. Although neonatal mononeuropathies may be related to obstetrical complications, prenatal mechanisms should be also considered. We describe an infant who was born at term by cesarean section due to breech presentation with a unilateral footdrop. Lack of compound muscle action potential in the peroneal nerve and denervation potentials confined to the tibialis anterior and the extensor hallucis longus muscles in the electrophysiological studies on the fourth day of life strongly suggest an isolated peroneal neuropathy of intrauterine onset. Early and sequential electrodiagnostic studies will be important to provide better temporal and pathophysiologic definitions, the better timing of onset and prognosis for mononeuropathies presenting in newborn infants.

We designed this study because it is necessary to take health care from middle age for to healthy old age. The purpose of this study was to confirm the effect of middle-aged women on the walking mechanism by applying an exercise program that can achieve the maximum effect through simple exercise regardless of time and place. A total of 20 subjects were selected from middle-aged women aged 45 years or older, with 10 calf-enhancing exercise groups and 10 control groups. As a result of comparing before and after exercise in the calf-enhancing exercise group, the step length left and right, and double support, step time, and speed were improved. As a result of comparing the walking mechanisms of the calf-enhancing exercise group and the non-exercise group after exercise, the step length left and right, and step time left and right were improved. The positive effect of the walking mechanism was shown through the calf-enhancing exercise regardless of time and place. In particular, it is judged that the stride was widened, resulting in an increase in the speed of walking due to the strength of the lower extremities and the shortening of the one-foot support section, resulting in meaningful results. In future studies, it is considered desirable to present measurement data for each life cycle by evaluating all ages, such as adolescents and the elderly, and to provide it as basic data for causing social problems due to lack of normal exercise.

Author planed peroneal artery perforator flap for ankle reconstruction and experienced successful result using sural neuro-lesser saphenous venous flap due to an unexpected event. A male Asian patient, 24 years old, had a history of recurrent operation wound disruption in the ankle region. Under general anesthesia, peroneal perforator and saphenous vein, as well as the sural nerve branches, were identified and preserved. In the process of flap rotation, an accidental division of peroneal artery perforator has occurred. Despite the division of the perforator, circulation was normal. The patient experienced no complication after the surgery. Some study reported that accompanying arteries and the vascular plexus around the sural nerve communicate. In conclusion, sufficient blood supply was possible only with the accompanying artery of the sural nerve without peroneal perforator. So, it is essential to always preserve not only perforator but also neurovascular bundles at any circumstances and any location.
