“…17 This is influenced by the medial and lateral angles of the plantar arch in girls greater than in boys. 18,19 Based on research conducted by Xu et al, children of the male sex have a higher possibility of flat feet than girls. 6 Supported by research, Abich et al found that children with the male sex have 1.5 times the likelihood of having flat feet than girls.…”

Background: The condition of flat feet in children will affect activity, development, and weight management. Even though there are often no symptoms, if the condition leads to a severe stage, it will interfere with the function of the feet. The impacts that can be caused by flat feet include walking that is not good, being quickly tired, impaired agility, and poor balance, which affects children's activities. Therefore, knowing the factors that can affect flat feet is necessary. This study aimed to determine the risk factors for flat feet in children. Methods: The study used a literature review design using secondary data from published literature. The literature search was conducted online through PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar, using the keywords “flat foot”, “plantar index”, and “risk factors”, which were selected based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. Results: Aged 6-12 years are described as having a higher risk of experiencing flat feet. The male sex has a greater risk than women, the use of closed footwear also has a greater risk, and low physical activity is one of the risk factors. Besides that, being overweight and obese can increase the risk of flat feet. Conclusion: The strongest risk factor for flat feet was age, which was also influenced by gender, footwear shape, activity, and nutritional status.

The plantaris muscle consists of a small muscular and a long tendinous part and is located at the superficial compartment of the posterior leg. The purpose of the current cadaveric report is to describe a rare variant of the plantaris muscle. During a routine dissection, a three-headed plantaris with two accessory heads was identified with a variant insertion of the two accessory heads. All heads originated from the femur popliteal surface, independently the one from the other. The first head contributed to the long and thin calcaneal tendon, and the two accessory heads were mainly inserted via their musculoaponeurotic expansion into the medial femoral condyle. The planatris muscle morphological variability has been extensively studied lately. The incidence of the two-headed muscle has been estimated at 1.6%, while the three-headed muscle corresponds to an even rarer variation.
