    Extractions: Clubfoot Birth deformities of the foot fall into two categories: 1) Positional deformities packaging defects of the foot, and 2) Malformations 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. This photo of a clubfoot shows the foot is inwardly rotated (towards the big toe) and supinated (turned on its side towards the other foot). In walking position, this child would walk on the outside border of the foot. This rear view of the foot shows the heel retracted towards the leg (equinus). Note the medial (inner) crease and curved lateral (outer) border of the foot. This foot cannot be brought to plantigrade position, meaning flat on the floor.

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 a complete evaluation and treatment of the deformity. The usual treatment of a clubfoot is a series of corrective casts and/or braces, that are applied early in life to stretch the foot into a position that is as correct as possible. Frequently, surgery is also needed to release the stiff and misaligned joints of the foot. The result of such treatment is with an adequate foot for normal footwear, sports and cosmesis. Sometimes later in life or late childhood there can be pain in the foot necessitating special shoe modifications, such as arch supports or even additional corrective surgery. The treatment of the clubfoot is rather involved and best managed by orthopedic surgeons who are experienced in the techniques mentioned above.

Web-Based Prospective Trauma Registry Clubfoot Clubfoot I Study Despite decades of experience in the area of clubfoot repair, considerable uncertainty remains regarding indications, surgical technique, and long-term results of treatment. Much of this uncertainty is due to the lack of a standardized and valid method for assessing postoperative outcomes of clubfoot repair. This study used various endpoints to compare traditional and patient-based outcome measures and to develop a disease-specific instrument that is both meaningful to the patient and statistically valid. A cohort of 46 patients who had surgery at our institution was identified and several types of outcomes data were collected, including traditional endpoints of outcome (range of motion and radiographic criteria, qualitative patient-based data), and a previously validated instrument measuring pediatric functional status (FSIIr). At an average follow-up of 45 months, radiographic measures and range of motion were comparable to values published in previous studies. Postoperative functional status, as measured by the FSIIr, did not differ from that of age-matched controls. Psychometric analysis of these data allowed us to generate a 10-item disease-specific instrument (DSI), which conveyed patient-based attitudes toward outcome.

    Extractions: Orthopaedics Clubfoot, also known as talipes equinovarus, is a congenital (present at birth) foot deformity. It affects the bones, muscles, tendons, and blood vessels and can affect one or both feet. The foot is usually short and broad in appearance and the heel points downward while the front half of the foot (forefoot) turns inward. The heel cord (Achilles tendon) is tight. The heel can appear narrow and the muscles in the calf are smaller compared to a normal lower leg. It occurs in about one in every 1,000 live births and affects boys twice as often as girls. One in three cases of clubfoot affect both feet. Clubfoot is considered a "multifactorial trait." Multifactorial inheritance means there are many factors involved in causing a birth defect. The factors are usually both genetic and environmental. Often one gender (either male or female) is affected more frequently than the other in multifactorial traits. There appears to be a different "threshold of expression," which means that one gender is more likely to show the problem than the other gender. For example, clubfoot is twice as common in males as it is in females. Once a child has been born with clubfoot, the chance for it to happen again in a male or female child is about 4 percent overall. In other words, there is a 96 percent chance that another child would not be born with clubfoot.

    Extractions: Resources Clubfoot is a condition in which one or both feet are twisted into an abnormal position at birth. The condition is also known as talipes. True clubfoot is characterized by abnormal bone formation in the foot. There are four variations of clubfoot, including talipes varus, talipes valgus, talipes equines, and talipes calcaneus. In talipes varus, the most common form of clubfoot, the foot generally turns inward so that the leg and foot look somewhat like the letter J. In talipes valgus, the foot rotates outward like the letter L. In talipes equinus, the foot points downward, similar to that of a toe dancer. In talipes calcaneus, the foot points upward, with the heel pointing down. Clubfoot can affect one foot or both. Sometimes an infant's feet appear abnormal at birth because of the intrauterine position of the fetus birth. If there is no anatomic abnormality of the bone, this is not true clubfoot, and the problem can usually be corrected by applying special braces or casts to straighten the foot. The ratio of males to females with clubfoot is 2.5 to 1. The incidence of clubfoot varies only slightly. In the United States, the incidence is approximately 1 in every 1,000 live births. A 1980 Danish study reported an overall incidence of 1.20 in every 1,000 children; by 1994, that number had doubled to 2.41 in every 1,000 live births. No reason was offered for the increase.

    Extractions: cpweber@weberpr.com INFANT CLUBFOOT CAN BE CORRECTED WITHOUT SURGERY LOS ANGELES, Feb. 26, 2002 – Nine in ten infants with clubfoot can have the deformity corrected successfully without surgery, according to research presented today by pediatric foot and ankle experts at the American College of Foot and Ankle Surgeons annual meeting. Clubfoot is a deformity of unknown causes that occurs in otherwise healthy infants. It is the most common congenital disorder of the lower extremity, affects 1 in 750 infants, and occurs more frequently in boys. Clubfoot deformity causes the foot to turn inward and point downward. Shortened tendons and ligaments on the inside of the lower leg restrict outward movement and cause the foot to turn inward. Tight Achilles tendons cause the foot to point downward. "It has not been widely published that non-surgical treatments can achieve permanent correction in the first year of life," said ACFAS President Robert W. Mendicino, DPM. However, Mendicino reported that a unique external manipulation and casting technique, known as the Ponseti method, is gaining acceptance by podiatric foot and ankle surgeons as an alternative to clubfoot surgery. First described at the University of Iowa in 1950, long-term success with this treatment had not been replicated at other institutions until recently.

    Extractions: Clubfoot is a congenital deformity, which means it is present at birth.  It affects the foot and/or ankle.  In patients with clubfoot, the bones, joints, blood vessels, and muscles in the foot are formed incorrectly.  This results in either mild or severe deformities.  Most notable is the ‘kidney shape’ of the foot.  It can affect one or both feet, more frequently the left.  In about half of the cases, both feet are affected. Clubfoot can occur by itself or it can be accompanied by other birth defects such as malformation syndromes or chromosomal syndromes. There are three types of clubfoot: Calcaneal Valgus Matatarusus Varus Front of the foot is turned inward.

    Extractions: Photo: Physical therapist Holly Wilson tapes patient Kristen Silva’s foot during treatment at Texas Scottish Rite Hospital for Children, Dallas. Young Kristen Silva has a lifetime of running, jumping, and playing ahead of her. This probably doesn't seem remarkable, except for the fact that Kristen was born with two severe clubfeet. Clubfoot is an abnormality of the foot where the foot turns in and down at birth. The muscles, tendons, and ligaments supporting the feet are contracted (or shortened), causing the bones in the foot to be out of normal alignment. The severity of clubfoot varies widely from case to case, ranging from deformed but flexible to extremely rigid and difficult to move. The good news about clubfoot, though, is that it is a highly treatable ailment. Treatment is required shortly after birth. Up until recently, the two most common forms of treatment have been casting and surgery. Serial casting is a process that enables the foot to be stretched to the desired position through a series of plaster or fiberglass casts. After casting, a special brace may be required to help maintain the effects of the casting. Often, though, if casting is not completely successful, or if a child has a severe case of clubfoot, surgery is required. While casting and surgery are both proven methods of treating clubfoot, a new treatment is also now helping patients at Texas Scottish Rite Hospital for Children (TSRHC), Kristen Silva included. The new technique, pioneered in France, consists of stretching, strengthening, taping, and splinting. The procedure involves daily stretching and massage of the foot, followed by application of tape and a soft plastic splint that is easily removed and put back on. Parents, after training from a therapist, remove the splint each day, perform a specific series of stretching and strengthening exercises with the foot, then reapply the splint. This process, while time-consuming and meticulous, has been quite successful for patients at TSRHC. The French medical professionals who have been utilizing this method for sometime now are reporting significantly fewer surgeries for this patient population.

One of the most common nonmajor birth defects, clubfoot affects your child's foot and ankle, twisting the heel and toes inward. It may look like the top of the foot is on the bottom. The clubfoot, calf and leg are smaller and shorter than normal. Clubfoot is not painful, is correctable and your baby is probably otherwise normal. Approximately one in every 1,000 newborns has clubfoot. Of those, one in three have both feet clubbed. No one knows why it happens, but babies have been born with clubfoot for many hundreds of years. Two out of three clubfoot babies are boys. Clubfoot is twice as likely if you, your spouse or your other children also have it. Less severe infant foot problems are common and are often incorrectly called clubfoot.
