[Tibial corrective osteotomy in the treatment of congenital clubfoot]. 1989

W Schuckmann

A wrong torsion of the tibia in case of clubfoot has a restrictive influence on gait. The treatment is only possible with an osteotomy of the lower leg. 13 patients were treated with 17 osteotomies and the results were analysed. Derived from the results, the indication of osteotomy, the surgical technique and the treatment postoperative are discussed.
