Background: Tenotomy for residual equinus is commonly required in the management idiopathic club. The need to reduce complication and cost has made advancement from mini open needle tenotomy. This even more pertinent low- middle-income country where clubfoot common. study compared outcome of blade tenotomy club foot.
 Patients Methods: it a prospective randomized patient requiring J...

Background: Idiopathic clubfoot is one of the most common and complex congenital deformities which are difficult to correct. Aims Objectives: The present study was designed assess effectiveness results Ponseti method’s early use in treatment idiopathic talipes equinovarus (CTEV). Materials Methods: Seventy-six feet 50 patients CTEV during period May 2019–May 2020 were studied. All cases treated...

We describe a case of intramuscular vascular malformation with extensive ossification within the posterior compartment muscles of leg which grossly mimicked long bone leading to equinus deformity of foot. Phleboliths and calcifications are characteristic of vascular malformations, while massive ossification is rare. To our knowledge, no extensive ossified vascular malformation within the leg mu...

Background: Congenital talipes equinovarus varus (CTEV) is one of the most common congenital anomalies foot and ankle affecting 1/1000 live birth approximately. With a male dominance pattern, this deformity bilateral in 50% cases. It has four basic components: cavus, adduction, equinus. Severity clubfoot accessed using Pirani score (0 to 6). Insights into pathoanatomy complex 3 dimensional help...

BACKGROUND Spastic equinus foot is among the most common deformities in patients with cerebral palsy. The optimal therapy of this condition is yet to be determined. Despite a considerable volume of literature concerned with the subject of cerebral palsy, there is still a need for studies focusing on long-term follow-up after corrective procedures. The study aimed to evaluate the long-term effec...

Equinus gait is one of the most common abnormalities in children with cerebral palsy. Although it is generally assumed that the calf muscles are abnormally short in equinus gait, no studies have been done to confirm that the muscles are short and that this shortness contributes to the equinus. This study used musculoskeletal modeling combined with computerized gait analysis to examine medial ga...

Equinus contracture often is a complication of trauma, burns, or neurologic deficit. Many patients with contractures secondary to trauma or burns have poor soft tissue, which makes invasive correction a less appealing option. The Ilizarov external fixator has been used as a less invasive attempt to correct equinus contracture. We describe our "dynamic" technique and present a clinical patient s...
