Abstract: | Review article. A definition of the congenital clubfoot as the rotational and torsional disorder in the sagittal, coronal and horizontal plane was described. The method of choice of the operative technique on the basis of clinical and radiographic parameters was presented. It was found that the primary technique used for surgical clubfoot correction is chosen from a set of different procedures, ranging from posterior release to complete subtalar release. The technique can be extended and modified during surgery. |
