Systemicconditions
The role of genetics in the development of tendinopathy is attributed to a sequence variation withintheTypeV collagen andTenascin C genes.37 Admittedly, theexactrole of
thesegenesinthepathophysiologyoftendinopathyhasyettobedefined.Aginghasalsobeen implicatedbecauseofitsadverseeffectsonthemechanicalpropertiesoftendons,whichmay be dueto reducedblood flow,local hypoxia, free radical production, impairedmetabolism
andnutrition,andadvancedglycosylationendproducts(AGEs).

The association between systemic disease and tendinopathy has been described in a multitude of studies, with diabetes, hypercholesterolemia, hyperuricemia, and obesity all implicated in the pathogenesis of tendon degeneration. Rheumatoid arthritis, in addition to manyotherautoimmunediseases,canalsopredisposepatientstotendinopathy.Inthesettingof diabetes,tendondamage is causedbyanexcessofAGEs,whichcausesanoxidation-driven cross-linkingofcollagen.Unliketheenzymaticallydrivencross-linkingofcollagen,whichhas beneficial effects on tendon strength, AGE cross-linking compromises the biologic and
mechanicalintegrityoftendons.38InbothTypeIandTypeIIDM,increasedtendonthickness andstructuralabnormalitiesoftheplantarfasciaandAchillestendonhavebeenobserved.
Tendonxanthomaisassociatedwithheterozygousfamilial hypercholesterolemia(HeFH).
https://t.me/medicina_free
This inherited disease involves a mutated low-density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor gene, leading to defective LDL catabolism.39 The xanthoma, and subsequent tendon degeneration,
occursascholesterolisdepositedboth extracellularlyand inside histiocytesand other foam cells,triggeringaninflammatoryresponseandfibrousreaction.TheAchillestendon is most commonlyinvolved.Nonfamilialhypercholesterolemiamayalsocontributetotendinopathy.In oneinvestigation,theconcentrationofserumlipidswasfoundtobehigherinsubjectswithan
Achilles tendon rupture as compared to controls.40 However, other works refute this, demonstratingtendonabnormalitiesonlyinsubjectswithfamilialhypercholesterolemia.
41
Hyperuricemia can lead to monosodium urate (MSU) crystal deposition in tendon, in additionto other softtissues andjoints. These crystals, whichare responsible forgout,can manifestin tendonsas indolent nodules, which canbechallengingto distinguish from other subcutaneous nodules, such as those seen in rheumatoid arthritis. In vitro studies have demonstratedthatatserumuricacidlevelsofapproximately7mgperdL,crystalprecipitation
beginstooccur.42However,theinvivodevelopmentofMSUcrystalsisdependentonother factors as well; trauma, mechanical stress, decreased blood flow, and lower temperatures
createanenvironmentconducivetocrystaldeposition.
43
Thereisawell-definedrelationshipbetweenobesityandtendinopathy.44Althoughitwas oncethoughtthatonlyload-bearingtendonswereaffectedbyobesity,therelationshipbetween
adiposityandtendinopathyisnowrecognizedinnon–load-bearingtendonsaswell.45Thisis duetoanenhancedunderstandingofthesystemiceffectsofadipose,specificallywithregardto itsroleintheendocrinesystem.Inotherwords, itisnotsimplytheexcessstressplacedon tendons thatleads to tendinopathy inthe setting ofobesity, butis also due to the bioactive peptides and hormones released by adipose tissue, such as chemerin, lipocalin 2, serum
amyloid A3, leptin, and adiponectin.46 These proteins stimulate a low-grade inflammatory response thatdisrupts the biologic milieucrucial for normal tendon homeostasis.47 Further,
obesity can lead to insulin resistance and the subsequent development of diabetes. As discussedpreviously,thisdiseaseisalsoimplicatedintendinopathy.

DIAGNOSIS
HistoryandPhysicalExamination
A detailed historyisimperativewhenconcernedfortendinopathiesofthefootandankle,as patients’symptomsareoftenvagueandpresentinsidiously.Acommoncomplaintispaininthe regionoftheaffectedtendonthatworsenswithsustainedactivityoronweightbearing.Early on,painisabsentatrest,maydecreaseafterawarm-upperiod,andistriggeredbyspecific activities. With more advanced disease, patients describe continuous discomfort that is exacerbatedbyabroaderspectrumofactivities.
Theclinicianmustidentifyanyriskfactorsfortendinopathy,suchasage,obesity,overuse, training errors, medication side effects, smoking, improper shoe wear, and systemic conditions.
Althoughpatientsmaydescribeaspecificinjury,participationinanewsportorexercise,
https://t.me/medicina_free
oranincreaseintheintensityofphysicalactivityprecedingtheonsetofsymptoms,thosewith tendinopathythatisthemanifestationofasystemicprocessmaynot.Therefore,cliniciansmust alsoinquireaboutconcurrentmusculoskeletalsymptomsinothertendonsorjoints,whichare
most consistent with a systemic process.
49,50
 Admittedly, thecauses of tendinopathy do not solely occur independent of each other. Clinicians must therefore remember that one’s presentingsymptomsmaybethecumulativeresultofseveralunderlyingprocesses.
Theaforementionedrelationshipbetweentendinopathyandsystemicdiseaseelucidatesthe importanceofobtainingthoroughgeneralhealth,medication,andpastmedicalhistoriesfrom patientsinwhomthereisconcernforatendinopathy.Althoughsomepatientswillpresentwith a known diagnosis of one of those conditions, others may be unaware. This is commonly
observedwithDM,asapproximately25%ofpatientsareunawarethattheyhavethedisease.
51
Physicalexaminationmustincludeassessmentofthe entire body, as nonspecificfindings such as body habitus may be of tremendous diagnostic utility. In a study investigating the relationshipbetweenfatdistributionandtendinopathy,itwasdeterminedthatAchillestendon pathologyis associatedwithcentral fatdistribution inmenandperipheralfatdistributionin
women.
48
Withregardtothefootandankleexamination,acomprehensiveassessmentiswarranted. Theexaminationshouldbeginwithvisualinspection,whichmayrevealsubtledifferencesas compared with the contralateral side. Such findings include swelling, muscle atrophy, skin breakdown,bruising, and deformity in the region ofthe affectedtendon. With tendinopathy, discomfort is brought on by palpation along the affected tendon and during assessment of strength and function, which is usually diminished as well. A patient’s alignment and neurovascularstatusmustalsobeassessedduringtheexamination.
Inthefootandankle,Achilles,posteriortibial,peroneal,tibialisanterior(TA),andFHL tendinopathies can result from underlying systemic processes. It is therefore important for clinicianstohaveafamiliaritywiththecommonexaminationfindingsassociatedwitheachof these.WithAchillestendinopathy,patientsoftenpresentwithpainandswellinginandaround thetendon,andcanalsohavepalpablenodules,asseeninthesettingofaxanthoma.Posterior tibial tendinopathy (PTT) is associatedwiththe “too manytoes” sign, which describes the increasednumberoftoesevidentonthelateralaspectoftheinvolvedfootwhenviewedfrom
behind52(Fig.22-3). In addition, whenaskedto standontiptoe,normalheelvaruswill not occur,andpainwillensuealongthePTT.Tendinopathyoftheperonealtendonsisfrequently associatedwithlateralanklepain,instability,andswelling.Thepaincanbereproducedwith activedorsiflexionandeversionofthefootagainstresistance.InpatientswithTA,abulbous enlargementofthetendonofthedorsalmedialfootmaybeevident.Ifitisrupturedorseverely attenuated, patientsmayhaveafoot drop.With FHL tendinopathy, posteromedial anklepain may be present, andpainalong thetendon will occur when thepatientis askedto flexthe halluxagainstresistanceandwiththefootinplantarflexion.

DiagnosticAdjuncts
Plain radiographs should be the first imaging studies obtained, as they can exclude bony abnormalities and other pathologies as the cause of symptoms. Radiographs may also demonstrateosseouschanges consistentwithvarioussystemic disorders,suchas theerosive changesinthehalluxconsistentwithgout(Fig.22-4). Advancedimaging, such asultrasound andmagneticresonanceimaging(MRI),iswarrantedifthediagnosisremainsunclearorifa patientfailstorespondtoconservativeinterventions.

MRI is considered the standard for tendon imaging because of its excellent soft tissue contrastandvisualization ofintratendinousabnormalities.53It canalso distinguishclinically similar entities, such as Achilles tendinosis and peritendinitis.53 However, ultrasound has
recently becomeapopularmeansofimagingtendonsasitcanbeperformed atalowercost andhastheadvantageofdynamicreal-time imaging.54Further,itshigh sensitivity, accuracy,
andpositive predictive valuefor tendon pathology ofthe footand ankle are comparable to those of MRI.
54,55
 When used in conjunction with Doppler techniques, ultrasound becomes
even more advantageous, as it is able to delineate areas of neovascularization that are associatedwithtendinopathy.18Ingeneral,theultrasoundfindingsconsistentwithtendinopathy
includeincreasedcross-sectionalandanterior–posteriortendondiameter,disruptionofnormal fibrillarpatternsandirregulartendonstructure,andhypoechoicareaswithinthetendon56(Fig.
22-5).
Laboratorystudiesareindicatediftendinopathyisthoughttohaveresultedfromasystemic condition.Inadditiontoacompletebloodcountandmetabolicpanel,condition-specificlabs mustbeobtainedwhentheclinicianisconcernedforanunderlyingmetabolicprocessasthe cause of one’s tendinopathy. Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) is beneficial in the workup for diabetes,andisrepresentativeofanindividual’sbloodglucosecontrolovertheprevious2to 3months.AnHbA1c>6.5%ontwoseparatetestsisconsistentwiththediagnosisofdiabetes.

Whenconcernedthatatendinopathyisduetocholesterolmetabolism,alipidpanelshould beperformed.Infact,Beeharryetal.57suggestthatallyoungpatientscomplainingofsevere
Achillestendonpainforfourormoredaysshouldhavetheirserumcholesterolchecked,asthis is a common finding in patients with HeFH, as compared to control subjects. In another
investigation,Gaidaetal.45foundthatindividualswithsymptomaticAchillestendinopathyhad highertriglyceridelevelsandlowerhigh-densitylipoproteinlevelsascomparedwithgender, age,andbodymassindex–matchedcontrols.

A serum uric acid level must be obtained when the clinician’s differential diagnosis includes MSU crystal deposition. In the work by Pineda et al.,58 Achilles tendinopathy
secondary to MSU deposition was more common in hyperuricemic as compared to normouricemicpatients(15%vs.1.9%,respectively).
TREATMENT
Available modalities for the treatment of foot and ankle tendinopathies range from conservativeinterventionstosurgery.Althoughorthopedicsurgeonsandothermusculoskeletal cliniciansaretypicallyabletomanagesuchtendinopathiesandtheintrinsicandextrinsicrisk factorsmostoftenresponsible(e.g.,overuse),thoseoccurringinthesettingofsystemicdisease oftennecessitateamultidisciplinaryapproach.Withouttreatmentoftheunderlyingcondition,a patient’ssymptomsmayfailtoresolve,worsen,orrecurfollowingtreatment.Further,systemic diseasessuchasobesityanddiabetespredisposepatientstoinferioroperativeoutcomesand
complications.59 In such instances, perioperative optimization is recommended with the assistanceofapatient’sendocrinologist,internist,orotherspecialist.
Mostpatientsdiagnosedwithtendinopathyareinitiallytreatedwitha2-to6-weekperiod
https://t.me/medicina_free
ofrestwithorwithoutimmobilization.However,thereisnoconsensusontheexactperiodof rest needed, which is dependent on the extent of injury and the patient’s level of activity. Medications such as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatorydrugs (NSAIDs) andacetaminophenare also used atthis time. Although NSAIDs provide short-termpainrelief,theyhavenotbeen showntoaffectlong-termoutcomes.Further,thereisnoevidencetosuggestthatNSAIDsare
moreeffectivethanacetaminophenforthetreatmentoftendinopathy.
60
Followingtreatmentwiththesemodalities,asupervisedphysicaltherapyprogramcanbe initiated that is focused on stretching and strengthening (Figs. 22-6 to 22-8). Eccentric stretching and strengthening promotes the formation ofnewcollagen and is associated with
excellentresults,particularlyinthemanagementofAchillestendinopathy.61Ultrasound,laser, massage,andelectricalstimulationhave beenusedtosupplementthe rehabilitationprocess,
butno conclusive evidenceexistsregardingthebenefitsof these modalities.
62–64
 Other less traditionalinterventions,suchasextracorporealshockwavetherapy(ESWT)andplatelet-rich plasma(PRP),havebeguntoreceiveattentionasnoveltechniquesdesignedtoimprovetendon biologyandmechanicalintegrity.
Repetitivelow-energyESWTis analternativetosurgeryforbothchronictendinopathies
thathavefailedotherconservativeinterventions.
65–67
Itworksbyintroducingpressurewaves atadiseasedsitewhichareconvertedintobiochemicalsignals.Thesesignalsinturnstimulate the release of growth factors, increase vascularity, and enhance extracellular matrix
production.68Ina systematicreviewbyAl-Abbadetal.,benefitsofESWT inthe setting of chronic Achilles tendinopathy were consistently observed.65 Rasmussen et al. found that
patientswithAchillestendinopathywhowere treatedwithESWTimprovedtheir American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) scores to a significantly greater extent than
thoseinashamgroupat3monthsfollow-up.66Further,ESWTmaybeofgreaterclinicalutility when combined with an eccentric loadingprogram, as described by Rompe etal.67 Future
researchisneededregardingtheoptimalenergylevelsandthenumberoftreatmentsnecessary to achieve good results with ESWT. Studies with longer term follow-up would also be
beneficial,asmostliteraturehasontheshort-termbenefits.

Biologictherapies, such asPRP, attempttofacilitatethehealingofdegenerative tendons throughtheintroductionofahighconcentrationofplateletsandtheirrespectivegrowthfactors toareasofdiseasedtendon.

CONCLUSION
Tendinopathies of the footand ankle havetraditionallybeen thought ofas overuseinjuries. Although this remains one of the most common causes of symptomatic lower extremity tendinopathy, the role of systemic disease must also always be considered, as metabolic derangementscanadverselyaffectthemechanicalandphysiologicintegrityoftendon.Asthe prevalenceof metabolic disorders, such asDM andobesity, continues torise inthe United
States, so too will the sequelae ofthese conditions.
73,74
 Practitioners must therefore have a
