OBJECTIVE To determine the biomechanical and clinical effectiveness of foot insoles in patients with knee osteoarthritis. MATERIALS AND METHODS A systematic review of the literature (Medline, Pascal and Embase) using the MESH words knee, and insole and plantar orthosis for the biomechanical part and osteoarthritis, and insole and plantar orthosis for the clinical part. Clinical studies were classified by 2 independent readers using the Jadad scale. RESULTS Two biomechanical theories were found: the adduction moment theory, which explains the effect of heel wedging, and articular chain theory, which explains the effect of lateral wedged insoles. The clinical effect was explained more by an anti-algesic effect than an anatomic or functional effect: the treated group consumed fewer nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs than the placebo group for up to 2-years of treatment. Evidence is lacking because of methodological weakness and few clinical trials. The information on side effects is limited. DISCUSSION Laterally wedged foot insoles are proposed for the treatment of knee medial compartment osteoarthritis. The clinical effect is probably limited, but the treatment may reduce the digestive and renal side effects of prolonged use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. Foot insoles could be recommended in clinical practice despite the lack of evidence in comparing the effectiveness of other therapeutics in knee osteoarthritis. CONCLUSION Use of foot insoles is a nonpharmacologic treatment of osteoarthritis of the knee medial compartment.

INTRODUCTION Traumatic cauda equina syndromes due to projectile wounds often have a poor prognosis. We report on an unusual ballistic cauda equina traumatism with a good functional outcome. CLINICAL CASE A 44-year-old man was admitted to emergency room for an incomplete cauda equina syndrome after trying to kill himself by means of a pneumatic nail gun. The nail had gone right through the third lumbar vertebra. Because of the stability of the fracture, orthopaedic surgery was not indicated. Neurological recovery was progressive. At 6 months, there was still a partial L5-S1 motor deficit on the left side but the patient could walk without crutches, and within an unlimited walking distance. DISCUSSION Initial imaging displayed a projectile trajectory focused on the spinal canal on level L3, which could have been considered as bad prognosis. The positive analytic and functional outcome correlates with the limited neurological tissue damage, probably explained by the ballistic properties of the projectile. CONCLUSION Apart from the influence of a possible surgical act, the neurological and functional prognosis of a traumatic cauda equina syndrome caused by a projectile also depends on its physical characteristics.
