Abstract
The terminology of the foot and ankle can be confusing. The fact that several different terms can be associated with each structure or concept complicates their understanding. Many practitioners may assume that terminological differences are associated with specific disciplines, such as clinician versus bioengineer, or basic versus applied researcher. However, that is not the case always. Terminology differences are more complicated. As such, opportunities for collaborations among laboratories, disciplines, languages, and cultures are inadvertently stifled. Different organizations have attempted to address this problem by developing recommended terminological standards. A few of these standards are regularly consulted, but none have been fully successful.
