Abstract: ObjectiveTo quantitatively and qualitatively analyze the results from treatment of congenital clubfoot with a mean follow-up of 4.6 years.Methods26 patients who underwent treatment by means of the Ponseti method were analyzed (total of 39 feet). The mean age at the start of the treatment was 5.65 months. The mean length of the follow-up subsequent to tenotomy of the Achilles tendon was 4.6 years. Patients with secondary clubfoot were excluded. Epidemiological data, radiographic measurements on the Kite angle a… Show more

“…This study established that the Ponseti method is a gold standard in clubfoot treatment. Further studies said that the Ponseti method has a success rate of 75% to 90% 42,43 or even higher 44,45 and is equally effective in treating relapsed cases 46 . Of the 193 United Nations member countries, 113 have adopted the Ponseti method 8 as the standard method of clubfoot treatment.…”

“…Idiopathic clubfoot, or congenital talipes equinovarus (CTEV), is the most common musculoskeletal congenital malformation needing intensive orthopedic treatment [ 1 ]. Clubfoot affects approximately 1/1000 alive born infants [ 1 , 2 ], of whom 80–91% are born in low- or middle-income countries (LMICs) [ 2 , 3 ]. A clubfoot presents with malformation at the bony, tendinous, muscular, and articular level [ 4 , 5 ].…”
