Operation for calcaneus deformity after surgery for club foot.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We describe three patients who developed gross calcaneus deformity following surgery for talipes equinovarus. One also had an associated valgus deformity and another had supination of the forefoot; all had intractable problems with footwear. Operation for transfer of the tibialis anterior to the heel, with correction of the associated deformities, was successful and improved both their gait and the shoe problems.

Assessment of hindfoot deformity by three-dimensional MRI in infant club foot.
In 12 infants aged under 16 months with unilateral club foot we used MRI in association with multiplanar reconstruction to calculate the volume and principal axes of inertia of the bone and cartilaginous structures of the hindfoot. The volume of these structures in the club foot is about 20% smaller than that in the normal foot. The reduction in volume of the ossification centre of the talus (4...
متن کاملOsteotomy of the calcaneus and concomitant plantar stripping in children with talipes cavo-varus.
Cavo-varus deformity of the foot secondary to poliomyelitis, congenital club foot or other diseases is a rather complex deformity caused by imbalance of intrinsic and extrinsic muscles of the foot. Correction by tarsal reconstruction with or without soft-tissue procedures is the accepted form of treatment. However, in children too young for tarsal reconstruction the problem remains, because the...
متن کاملCalcaneo-valgus deformity.
A discussion of the essential deformity in calcaneo-valgus feet develops a theme originally put forward in 1961 on the relapsed club foot (Evans 1961). Whereas in the normal foot the medial and lateral columns are about equal in length, in talipes equino-varus the lateral column is longer and in calcaneo-valgus shorter than the medial column. The suggestion is that in the treatment of both defo...
متن کاملThe treatment of congenital club foot by operation to correct deformity and achieve dynamic muscle balance.
We operated on 111 patients with 159 congenital club feet with the aim of correcting the deformity and achieving dynamic muscle balance. Clinical and biomechanical assessment was undertaken at least six years after operation when the patient was more than 13 years of age. The mean follow-up was for 11 years 10 months (6 to 36 years). Good and excellent results were obtained in 91.8%. Patients w...
متن کاملHind-foot correction and stabilization by pins in plaster after surgical release of talipes equino varus feet in older children
Congenital talipes equino varus (CTEV) is a three dimensional deformity and is one of the most common congenital abnormalities affecting the lower limb and can be challenging to manage. Hind-foot deformity is considered the most difficult to treat. Unfortunately, the calcaneus is often small and thus difficult to control during casting after surgical release in severe or relapsed cases. We used...
