BACKGROUND Optimal management of congenital talipes equinovarus continues to be controversial. There is a dramatically renewed emphasis on non-operative management partly because there has been a high recurrence rate among operated feet. Our hypothesis is that early, extensive subtalar ligament release as the cornerstone of aggressive hindfoot realignment prevents recurrence and retains mobilit...

Objectives: Despite numerous studies, having the best outcome is challenging after flexor tendon repairs in zone 2. This study were done to test the hypothesis that immediate postoperative active mobilization will achieve similar outcomes to passive mobilization. Methods: Fifty fingers in 38 patients with flexor tendon repair in zone 2 were enrolled in this trial. The patients randomly assig...

Objectives: The objective was to determine the results of early active controlled motion in the patients rehabilitated by our new protocol. Methods: 91 fingers in 64 patients with flexor tendon repair in all zones were enrolled in a single group (quasi-experimental) clinical trial. 58 fingers in 43 patients were assessed at least three months postoperatively.
