Skeletal disorders of the foot can be assessed radiologically by changes in bone density, structure and/or form. The knowledge of specific morphological criteria is a precondition for differential diagnosis. Our classification of skeletal disorders of the foot is based on the specific signs that can be observed in systemic and local diseases affecting the pedal bones.
If the barium enema reveals stenosing changes of the terminal ileum and caecum, tuberculosis must be considered in differential diagnosis, even if pulmonary evidence of the illness is lacking. Since, however, radiographically no exclusive typical changes for the tuberculosis of the terminal ileum and caecum can be seen, the diagnosis must be checked histologically and bacteriologically. Under drug therapy an obvious decrease of the inflammation of the mucosa of the colon could be seen.
