Abstract 

Introduction and aim

Hindfoot injuries can produce changes in bipedal standing and gait. The aim of this study is to determine a functional and biomechanical analysis on hindfoot and ankle injuries.

Material and methods

A group of 10 patients with hindfoot and ankle injuries were evaluated by means of a kinetic analysis of gait with a dynamometric platform.

Results

The analyzed parameters showed significant differences between the healthy and the injured foot.

Keywords: Kinetic gait analysis, Hindfoot injuries
