The Ilizarov method in the management of relapsed club feet



Download PDF

Abstract

We present the results of the management of 17 relapsed club feet in 12 children using the Ilizarov method with gradual distraction and realignment of the joint. Review at a mean of three years after surgery showed maintenance of correction with excellent or good results in 13 feet. Five mobile feet which had been treated by a split transfer of the tibialis anterior tendon two weeks after removal of the frame had an excellent result.


Correspondence should be sent to Mr C. F. Bradish.
