Congenital vertical talus. The results of staged operative reduction.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Congenital vertical talus was diagnosed in 15 feet of 10 children, and was treated by operative reduction. Forefoot deformity was corrected first, using anterolateral soft-tissue release on 11 feet, and manipulation alone in four feet. After prolonged immobilisation in plaster the affected feet had posterior release at the ankle and elongation of the calcaneal tendon. Clinical and radiographic examination at follow-up 15 months to 21 years later showed that a satisfactory outcome had been achieved in 12 of the 15 feet.

Surgical Correction of Congenital Vertical Talus by One-stage Peritalar Reduction and Tibialis Anterior Transfer
Twenty-eight feet of 16 children with true congenital vertical talus (CVT) were treated surgically by one-stage peritalar reduction and tibialis anterior transfer to the neck of the talus. The male to female ratio was 3:1. Fifty percent (8 patients with 15 feet) were isolated CVT and the remaining (8 patients with 13 feet) were CVT associated with other congenital anomalies mostly arthrogryposi...
متن کاملCongenital convex pes valgus (congenital vertical talus). The condition and its treatment: a review of the literature.
Much discussion exists about the best operative technique to treat congenital convex pes valgus. In this article a table of surgical approaches and an algorithm, based upon literature review, are presented. In our opinion the technique of choice in a child younger than 2 years of age is extensive release with lengthening of tendons and fixation procedures. In a child over 2 years of age, extens...
متن کاملCongenital Vertical Talus in Infancy
Lamy and Weissman (1939) in the earliest important paper on this rare deformity described the clinical characteristics of congenital vertical talus as convexity of the sole, deviation into valgus of the posterior part of the foot and abduction of the forefoot. Radiographically it is distinguished by the vertical or oblique position of the talus. They preferred the title congenital convex pes va...
متن کاملIdiopathic Congenital Vertical Talus (CVT)
CVT is a rare, severe, important deformity. This case report is to highlight the importance of deformity and early notification. Surgical correction as one stage procedure is probably the best procedure. CVT has no sex prevalence, bilateral in 50% of cases and more than 50% of cases a secondary cause implicated. Pathological anatomy involves dislocation of the talonavicular articulation with th...
متن کاملAcquired vertical talus due to burn contractures. A report of two cases.
A vertical talus is one feature of the rare congenital abnormality known as congenital convex pes valgus (Lamy and Weissman 1939), or rocker-foot (Hark 1950). Two cases of vertical talus deformity are described here associated with severe burn contractures. The position of the contractures suggests that the scarring is responsible for the deformities. If this is so, does the acquired abnormalit...
