Aim

The treatment of relapsed clubfeet presents a significant challenge. The Ilizarov method of gradual correction has been shown to provide satisfactory outcome. Since 2001 we have employed a newer differential soft tissue distraction using an Ilizarov frame in relapsed feet based on the Ponseti principles. The aim of our study was to analyse the outcome of this treatment.

Material and Methods

All feet treated with soft tissue distraction only were studied. The feet were assessed using international clubfoot study group evaluation, pedobarography, and gait analysis, X-rays and ASK (activity scale for kids) questionnaire.
