Résumé
We aimed to investigate the diagnostic accuracy of known two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) measurements for Progressive Collapsing Foot Deformity (PCFD) in weight-bearing computed tomography (WBCT). We hypothesized that 3D biometrics would have better specificity and sensitivity for PCFD diagnosis than 2D measurements. This was a retrospective case-control study, including 28 PCFD feet and 28 controls matched for age, sex and Body Mass Index. Two-dimensional measurements included: axial and sagittal talus-first metatarsal angles (TM1A and TM1S), talonavicular coverage angle (TNCA), forefoot arch angle (FFAA), middle facet incongruence angle (MF°) and uncoverage percentage (MF%). The 3D Foot Ankle Offset (FAO) was obtained using dedicated semi-automatic software. Intra and interobserver reliabilities were assessed. Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curves were calculated to determine diagnostic accuracy (Area Under the Curve (AUC)), sensitivity and specificity. In PCFD, mean MF% and MF° were respectively 47.2% ± 15.4 and 13.3° ± 5.3 compared with 13.5% ± 8.7 and 5.6° ± 2.9 in controls (p < 0.001). The FAO was 8.1% ± 3.8 in PCFD and 1.4% ± 1.7 in controls (p < 0.001). AUCs were 0.99 (95%CI, 0.98-1) for MF%, 0.96 (95%CI, 0.9-1) for FAO, 0.90 (95%CI, 0.81-0.98) for MF°. For MF%, a threshold value equal or greater than 28.7% had a sensitivity of 100% and specificity of 92.8%. Conversely, a FAO value equal or greater than 4.6% had a specificity of 100% and a sensitivity of 89.2%. All other 2D measurements were significantly different in PCFD and controls (p < 0.001). MF% and FAO were both accurate measurements for PCFD. MF% demonstrated slightly better specificity. FAO better sensitivity. A combination of threshold values of 28.7% for MF% and 4.6% for FAO yielded 100% sensitivity and specificity.

BACKGROUND
BACKGROUND
We aimed to investigate the diagnostic accuracy of known two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) measurements for Progressive Collapsing Foot Deformity (PCFD) in weight-bearing computed tomography (WBCT). We hypothesized that 3D biometrics would have better specificity and sensitivity for PCFD diagnosis than 2D measurements.
METHODS
METHODS
This was a retrospective case-control study, including 28 PCFD feet and 28 controls matched for age, sex and Body Mass Index. Two-dimensional measurements included: axial and sagittal talus-first metatarsal angles (TM1A and TM1S), talonavicular coverage angle (TNCA), forefoot arch angle (FFAA), middle facet incongruence angle (MF°) and uncoverage percentage (MF%). The 3D Foot Ankle Offset (FAO) was obtained using dedicated semi-automatic software. Intra and interobserver reliabilities were assessed. Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curves were calculated to determine diagnostic accuracy (Area Under the Curve (AUC)), sensitivity and specificity.

RESULTS
In PCFD, mean MF% and MF° were respectively 47.2% ± 15.4 and 13.3° ± 5.3 compared with 13.5% ± 8.7 and 5.6° ± 2.9 in controls (p < 0.001). The FAO was 8.1% ± 3.8 in PCFD and 1.4% ± 1.7 in controls (p < 0.001). AUCs were 0.99 (95%CI, 0.98-1) for MF%, 0.96 (95%CI, 0.9-1) for FAO, 0.90 (95%CI, 0.81-0.98) for MF°. For MF%, a threshold value equal or greater than 28.7% had a sensitivity of 100% and specificity of 92.8%. Conversely, a FAO value equal or greater than 4.6% had a specificity of 100% and a sensitivity of 89.2%. All other 2D measurements were significantly different in PCFD and controls (p < 0.001).
CONCLUSIONS
CONCLUSIONS
MF% and FAO were both accurate measurements for PCFD. MF% demonstrated slightly better specificity. FAO better sensitivity. A combination of threshold values of 28.7% for MF% and 4.6% for FAO yielded 100% sensitivity and specificity.
