An attempt has been made to assess the results of a method of treatment in 1 86 club feet in infants. The stimulus to study this problem came from the suggestion that insufficient knowledge was available to judge which of three early treatments was the best (Lloyd-Roberts 1964). It is hoped that this analysis may enable fact to replace supposition when the results of early treatment are discussed.

We present a systematic review of the results of the Ponseti method of management for congenital talipes equinovarus (CTEV). Our aims were to assess the method, the effects of modifications to the original method, and compare it with other similar methods of treatment. We found 308 relevant citations in the English literature up to 31 May 2010, of which 74 full-text articles met our inclusion c...
