3.A Four-year Review of Delayed Initial Treatment of Patients with Congenital Talipes equinovarus in a General Hospital
Malaysian Orthopaedic Journal 2015;9(1):11-13
Congenital Talipes Equinovarus (CTEV), or club foot, is a
common congenital orthopaedic abnormality of the foot. ,
which is easily diagnosed but difficult to treat perfectly.
Controversy in terms of its etiology, classification and
management continues to exist. Delayed initial treatment in
patients with clubfoot has a strong correlation with a poor
outcome. The purpose of this study was to review the
factors that influence the outcome in patients who get
delayed initial treatment at Hasan Sadikin General Hospital
so that poor outcome can be prevented. We reviewed the
medical records of 15 patients (23 feet) during the period
from January 2009 to December 2013 and analysed various
factors including gender, age at time of first treatment, type
of disorder, the level of success of non-surgical therapy,
parent education level, family income and accessibility to
health care centre. CTEV was more common in girls in our
patients who were in the 6-12 months age group. The most
common type of CTEV was the flexible type. Treatment
with serial casting produced good results in most patients.
The majority of parents’ educational level was junior high
school and had 2-5 million/month income. The accessibility
of patients to health care centre was difficult.

Ten feet from 6 idiopathic congenltal clubfoot patients which had failed to respond to conservative mearsured were treated by aggreasive posteromedial release during infancy with generally good results. A modltication of Denis-Browne splint by splitting both aides and using dial lock to hold the foot still ln correeted position was found quite useful for post-operative maintenance.

5.Untreated Clubfoot in Adults (Report of Four Cases)
Myung Sang MOON ; See Joon HAHN
The Journal of the Korean Orthopaedic Association 1970;5(2):65-68
Experiences with four cases of untreated clubfoot in adults are reported. Three of these were congenital and one was secondary to poliomyelitis. Difficulties encountered in the corrective surgery of the cases are presented and the pathogenesis of tibial torsion and contribution of the talus in the development of congenital clubfoot are discussed along with review of the literature.

INTRODUCTION: Congenital talipes equinovarus (CTEV), also called clubfoot, is one of the most common orthopedic congenital anomalies. However, there is no formal study of the condition here in the Philippines, and data is sparse regarding the epidemiology, treatment, and outcomes in similar third-world countries.
METHODS: Retrospective review of data of clubfoot patients seen at the Philippine General Hospital (PGH) Clubfoot Clinic from 2006 up to the present.
RESULTS: Records from 75 patients treated at the PGH Clubfoot Clinic from 2010-2016 were reviewed. Idiopathic clubfoot comprised 76% of the patients, while syndromic clubfoot comprised 24%. A good outcome of the Ponseti method was seen in 82% and 88% of the idiopathic and syndromic clubfoot patients, respectively. Idiopathic clubfoot cases that had good outcomes required an average of 11.84 casts to tenotomy or bracing, which was not statistically significant compared to 9.55 average sessions for syndromic clubfoot (p=0.21). The initial Pirani scores for both cases were not significantly different (p=0.95). Idiopathic cases with poor outcomes needed less casting sessions (4.45) because the decision to operate was made early. Age was not found to significantly affect the outcome of treatment for idiopathic clubfoot (p=0.20) and syndromic clubfoot (p=0.64).
CONCLUSION: Ponseti casting was found to be effective in treating both idiopathic and syndromic clubfoot patients. The number of sessions did not differ significantly between the two.

7.Treatment of Calcaneovalgus Deformity Following Operative Treatment of Diplegic Equinovarus Deformity in Cerebral Palsy Patient: A Case Report.

Calcaneal or calcaneovalgus deformity can occur after surgical treatment of equinus or eguinovarus deformity in cerebral palsy patient. It is a serious complication and the results of many conservative and operative treatments are reported unsatisfactory. We experienced one case of both calcaneovalgus deformity following operative treatment of diplegic equinovarus deformity in a spastic cerebral palsy patient and report about the result of the treatment.

The 17 patients with 22 resistant clubfeet were treated with modified Turco's operation with or without combining release of calcaneocuboid joint at Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Hanyang University School of Medicine between 1896 and 1991. They were analysed preoperatively and postoperatively with chinical and radiological methods. In patients who were treated with combined procedures, the latetal talocalcaneal angle and anteroposterior talo-first metatarsal angle in radiological findings were showed better improvement(p < 0.05), and anteroposterior talocalcaneal angle was also showed better improvement but not significant statistically, than those who were treated with modified Turco's operation alone. The final results of combined procedures were better than that of modified Turco's operation. And the most common characteristic physical findings in resistant clubfoot were small heel, deep longitudinal crease on the medial aspect of midfoot area and a single transverse crease on the posterior heel just proximal to the insertion of the tendocalcaneus. So we suggest these physical findings may be expectance for the resistance of the congenital clubfoot to conservative treatment, but it need further comparative study.

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to quantitatively define outcomes of corrective surgery in children with various foot deformities.
METHODS: We used a retrospective, nonrandomized design. All pediatric patients who underwent pre and post-operative gait analysis and corrective surgery were included. Outcome measures included quantitative gait analysis with temporospatial and kinematic parameters, the Gait Deviation Index, Gillette FAQ, and Hoffer’s criteria.
RESULTS:. Five patients with neurogenic and idiopathic deformities underwent corrective surgery at the Philippine General Hospital from 2015 to 2017. Comparison of gait pre and postoperatively show promising outcomes, with improvement in GDI and FAQ levels, despite some of the patients’ need for braces.
CONCLUSIONS: Quantitative gait analysis is a suitable method for evaluating surgical outcomes for foot deformity correction. It can be used in combination with functional outcome measures and clinical examination to give an overall picture of a patient’s walking ability.
