Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, University of Bern, Inselspital, 3010 Bern, Switzerland
Foot Ankle Int 24:338-44. 2003..Discrete, non-progressive osteophytes were seen in all patients.

Foot Ankle Int 23:1008-13. 2002..Deformity and disability from cuboid compression fractures can effectively be prevented by immediate aggressive treatment consisting of open reduction and internal fixation... - Total hip replacement in patients with Parkinson's diseaseMartin Weber
Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, University of Bern, Inselspital, Switzerland
Int Orthop 26:66-8. 2002..Neurological status deteriorated over time with 57% of patients progressing to functional stages IV or V, although consistent improvement was noted for pain relief. Function was directly related to the stage of the neurological disease... - Ankle joint pressure changes in a pes cavovarus model after lateralizing calcaneal osteotomiesFabian G Krause
Department of Orthopaedic Surgery Inselspital, University of Berne, Freiburgstrasse, Berne, CH 3010, Switzerland
Foot Ankle Int 31:741-6. 2010..However, the relative effect of these osteotomies in terms of lateralizing the ground contact point of the hindfoot and redistributing ankle joint contact stresses are unknown... - Hindfoot joint pressure in supination sprainsFabian Krause
