Gender difference in adult foot shape: implications for shoe design

Article Abstract:

This article analyzes the differences in men and women's foot shapes, finding that men have broader and longer feet than women for their stature. Results show that women's feet and legs have different shape characteristics than men's, especially in the arch, the first toe, the lateral side, and the ball of the foot, which should be considered when designing sports shoes for women.

Intramuscular hemangioma of the foot: A diagnostic dilemma

Article Abstract:

Intramuscular hemangioma should be considered in patients with a soft-tissue mass and swelling or when soft-tissue conditions are not improving with traditional treatments, as the correct diagnosis is often delayed. Treatment must be individualized for each patient depending on tumor location, accessibility and cosmetic consequence.
