We believe patient-based goniometry to be a sufficiently accurate, valid and reliable approach for longitudinal clinical assessment of Dupuytren's disease. Conclusion Patient-based goniometric approaches have great potential for inexpensive, accurate, and accessible longitudinal assessment of the large population of Dupuytren patients. Such approaches could help to substantially improve overall care of Dupuytren's disease through early diagnosis and timely treatment. In addition, being able to collect reliable patient data on a regular basis and on a larger scale could help improve understanding of the natural history of Dupuytren's disease.Background Common peroneal neuropathy (CPN) shares the same pathophysiology as carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). However, management is often delayed due to the traditional misconception of recognizing foot drop as the defining symptom for diagnosis. We believe recognizing CPN before foot drop can relieve pain and help improve quality of life. Methods One hundred and eighty five patients who received surgical CPN decompression between 2011 and 2017 were included. The mean follow up time was 249 ± 28 days. Patients were classified into 2 stages of severity based on clinical presentation Pre-Foot Drop (PFD) and Overt Foot Drop (OFD). Demographics, presenting symptoms, clinical signs, electrodiagnostic studies and response to surgery were compared between these 2 groups. Multivariate regression analysis was used to identify variables that predicted outcome following surgery. Results OFD patients presented with significantly lower preoperative motor function (% of patients with Medical Research Council grade ≤1 OFD 90%; P
