A biomechanical evaluation of the tibiofibular and tibiotalar ligaments of the ankle.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) has been proposed as a conservative treatment for insertional Achilles tendinopathy from limited evidence without placebo controls. Our objective was to assess the effectiveness of ESWT compared with sham controls in chronic insertional Achilles tendinopathy. METHODS:...
