Foreword
One of the earliest signs of rheumatoid arthritis may be pain in the foot. However, this part of the body is very often neglected during clinical assessment of the illness in favour of the articulations of the upper limbs, knees and hips.
Nevertheless, it appears evident that a detailed clinical examination of the forefoot, ankle and heel could be useful in order to get closer to a rheumatological diagnosis.
Thanks to blood tests and conventional imaging, completed with a scanner or MRI if needed, every doctor should be in a position to detect the beginning of rheumatoid arthritis in the foot or ankle.
As well as its diagnostic contribution, this book broaches the theme of the most recent medicinal treatments, that of orthoses, made-to-measure shoes (the prescription of which practitioners and the rheumatologists often hand over to the orthopaedic surgeons), and finally that of local injections. These elements constitute the main treatment of the rheumatoid foot.
Taking care of the ill subject does not necessarily stop there and a surgeon may need to operate on the forefoot, which is more common, or on the mid-foot or the ankle.
One of the strong points of this book is that a large part of it covers the diverse surgical possibilities that are now available. These measures need to be carefully thought about beforehand with regards to their usefulness for each patient, if possible with an exchange between rheumatologists and orthopaedists. The complementary nature of the surgical and conservative clinical approach appears clearly in the structure of this book.
The credit of this book is due to A.M. Bouysset, Y. Tourne and K. Tillmann. With the
« Pied en rhumatologie » published in 1998 and « Pathologie osteo-articulaire du pied et de la cheville » published in 2000, Maurice Bouysset has already given us a foretaste of the perfection he achieves in the books he inspires and whose publications he directs.

Preface
We all have a great and ever increasing interest in the international efforts of describing, understanding and solving foot and ankle problems. More and more orthopaedic surgeons are going to specialize in the treatment of disorders of the foot. The European Foot and Ankle Society - EFAS, aiming to promote the development of foot and ankle surgery and to advance education, study and research in this speciality observes a popular interest and demand for instructional courses and for specialized literature.
It is essential to collect the experience and the expertise of more than one specialist to provide a substantial contribution to a subject. This book is certain to be a substantial contribution. Twenty percent of rheumatoid arthritis starts in the foot and ankle area. Not only specialists should know the pathomechanism and the spectrum of the conservative and operative treatment but also master later stages and to be able to soothe the suffering.
It is not an easy task to write comprehensible texts for all levels of rheumatologists, foot surgeons and professional groups engaged in foot treatment. In my view, all participating authors of this book have done just that, respecting the multiple layers of this chronic inflammatory disease. They share their great experience and their knowledge, respecting biomechanical features, giving a clear description of the current state of the art concerning operative treatment and conservative therapeutic and aftercare measures. Specialists and editors have succeeded in composing a unique textbook, reflecting the high level of the authors' experience. All fundamental information is well illustrated and arranged in a enjoyable didactical way.
Rheumatologists such as Maurice Bouysset and orthopaedists such as Yves Tourne and Karl Tillmann as editors and most of the participating authors of this are highly experienced in the treatment of inflammatory and post-inflammatory residual disorders of the human joints, and it was them who set the pace in many directions of research and development concerning the foot. This book provides us with an insight to the European rheumatologists' skills, being an enrichment for everybody's library.
