The persistence of metatarsus adductus varus has been a problem in management. We have treated a series of selected patients with this problem and believe that our results have been better than with the procedure we have used in the past. Fowler has described a procedure which seems ideal for the patients in our series. Through personal communication the procedure and its application were discussed and the series was started eight years ago. Our series is small because our patients are responding to other forms of treatment at an earlier age. The few that do not respond are now considered for the operation described. The procedure is relatively simple to perform. Full correction should be obtained at the time of surgery. Casting is utilized to hold the correction and immobilize the extremity for healing. Our unsatisfactory results occurred because of errors in technique or poor selection of patients. We believe that this procedure should be considered in the older patient with metatarsus varus.
