Congenital short tendo calcaneus.
It is common to see children who walk on their toes, and many different diseases are found to be the cause of this. During the past eight years we have recognised that some children, who appear to be otherwise normal, have a contracture of the calf muscles.

A No. 1 nylon suture on a 90 mm cutting needle approximates...
