Birth deformities of the foot fall into two categories: positional deformities, and malformations. Positional deformities are “packaging defects” of the foot. Malformations are “manufacturing defects” in which the parts are incorrectly formed. A true clubfoot is a malformation . The bones, joints, muscles, and blood vessels of the limb are abnormal. The medical term for this is “talipes equinovarus” relating the shape of the foot to a horses hoof. Don’t ask why! Clubfoot can be recognized in the infant by examination. The foot is inturned, stiff and cannot be brought to a normal position. Children with the condition should be referred to an orthopedic surgeon for complete evaluation and treatment of the deformity.

Information Message Board Guest Book Information ... Links When my daughter was born, we were told she had a little problem with her feet, called Talipes, which would simply require some physiotherapy. That was my introduction to this condition, and I knew very little about it. There was only limited information available, and so I began to develop the website you are now visiting. Bethany went on to require surgery when she was nine months old, which was thankfully very successful. For some, however, further treatment is needed, and problems can continue into adult life. This site has been designed to offer both information and support. It is not a medical reference site, but is built on my own experience, plus the experience of the many people I have been in contact with.

Clubfoot What is clubfoot? Clubfoot is a congenital deformity of the foot that occurs once per 1000 live births in the U.S. The foot has a typical appearance of pointing downwards and twisted inwards. Since the condition starts in the first trimester of pregnancy, the deformity is quite established at birth, and is often very rigid. What causes clubfoot? No one really knows what causes the deformity. It tends to be more common in boys, although girls are not exempt. There may be a positive family history. In rare instances a child born with myelomeningocele (spina bifida) or arthrogryposis may also have clubfeet. Beyond these observations, no actual cause is known. If your child has clubfoot, it is usually not due to anything you did or did not do during pregnancy. During development, the posterior and medial tendons and ligaments (in the back and inside) of the foot fail to keep pace with the development of the rest of the foot. As a result, these tendons and ligaments tether the posterior and medial parts of the foot down, causing the foot to point downwards and the twist inwards. The bones of the feet are therefore held in that abnormal position. Over time, if uncorrected, the bones will become mis-shapened. What are the symptoms of clubfoot?

Rose was born January on it. The nextday the doctor diagnosed Rose as having a clubfoot. My husband http://community-2.webtv.net/joybelle15/ROSESCLUBFOOTPAGE/

ROSE'S CLUBFOOT PAGE Rose Helena Rose was born January 30, 1999 at 8:23 p.m. She weighed 6 pounds 10 ounces, and she was 19 inches long. When I (Joy) was handed my precious little bundle, I noticed that her left foot didn't look right and mentioned it to the nurses. I was told it was no big deal and a doctor would come and see it in the morning. I prayed about it, but I was so absorbed in what a miracle she was that I didn't dwell on it. The next day the doctor diagnosed Rose as having a clubfoot. My husband (Neil) and I were assured that castings by the on-call orthopedic doctor who diagnosed her foot would probably fix it, and if not, we would be referred to a pediatric orthopedic doctor when she was two months of age to see if she would need surgery or not. Well, it ends up being a long story, and I wish I had had more information and known more about options from the start!! Here is Rose's story: Rose's Original Foot Rose is a week and a half old in this picture. The date is February 9, 1999, and she loves her changing table! With each diaper change, we have been giving Rose's left foot manipulations and stretches that the orthopedic showed us. This picture was also taken in the first week. Notice how the foot in the back faces the camera.

An interested resident is proficient in the technique after correcting two or three clubfeet. The main stages of the correction are illustrated in Figs. 1 to 9 using a facsimile of a clubfoot made of plastic bones and elastic strings. First, the resident learns to identify by palpation the position of the main bones of the foot in relation to the malleoli and to the head of the talus. In the clubfoot the calcaneus, the navicular and the cuboid are rotated medially in relation to the talus, and are firmly held in adduction and inversion by very tight ligaments and tendons ( Fig. 1 ). Although the whole foot is in extreme supination, the forefoot is pronated in relation to the hindfoot and this causes the cavus, the first metatarsal being in more plantar flexion than the lateral metatarsals ( Fig. 2

Information Message Board Guest Book Information - What is Clubfoot? What is Clubfoot? Treatment Options ... Links In the UK, the medical term for clubfoot is Congenital Talipes Equinovarus. 'Congenital' means a deformity that is present at birth, and 'Talipes' means simply the foot and ankle. 'Equinovarus' refers to the position of the foot, which points downwards and inwards. Talipes can involve both feet or just one, and is present at birth. There are other forms of the condition, where the front of the foot turns upwards, or the foot turns outwards, but the above form of talipes occurs most frequently. It is a condition that has been known about for many years, and occurs worldwide, but very little is known about the cause. There is considerable evidence that the condition can be hereditary, and it is more common in boys than girls.
