TIBIALIS POSTERIOR TRANSFER IN CONGENITAL CLUB FOOT



Download PDF

Abstract

1. The tibialis posterior tendon was transferred in twenty-eight congenital club feet to maintain the correction obtained by serial wedge plasters.

2. There has been no relapse in twenty-seven of the twenty-eight feet in the period under review–namely, one to three years from operation.

3. The technique of the operation is described.

4. It appears that this operation should not be attempted when a soft-tissue correction has been done previously.
