    Abstract:
    The nozoological structure of podiatric pathology in Novosibirsk oblast is represented mainly by the injuries of talocrural articulation (39.2% of examined patients), deformation of foot (20.7%) and degenerative lesion of foot (15.9%), fractures of heel bone (4.2%). This pathology has higher social significance. The main cause of disability is the deforming arthritis of talocrural articulation (48.5%) and subtalar articulation (20.3%). The model of specialized podiatric care was developed and approved in the functioning of Novosibirsk specialized podiatric center. The model includes outpatient, diagnostic, treatment, rehabilitation stages. The implementation of this approach permits to avoid the re-appealability to municipal medical care system and application to the specialized medical institution. This approach precipitates the period of care delivering and decreases the possibility of disabling patients due to non-effective treatment of podiatric pathology in common curative institution.
