The authors review 30 patients with congenital club foot (CCF) who were treated surgically by a slightly modified Codivilla technique. Clinical morphologic, and functional follow-up was performed an average of 10 years later, and the findings were compared to the radiographic features. The final outcome was rated good in 41% of the cases, fair in 29%, and unsatisfactory in 30%. The authors found a close correlation between the grade of the initial deformity and the final outcome. Some sign of the deformity always remained, even when the functional outcome was excellent.

Abstract
The authors review 30 patients with congenital club foot (CCF) who were treated surgically by a slightly modified Codivilla technique. Clinical morphologic, and functional follow-up was performed an average of 10 years later, and the findings were compared to the radiographic features. The final outcome was rated good in 41% of the cases, fair in 29%, and unsatisfactory in 30%. The authors found a close correlation between the grade of the initial deformity and the final outcome. Some sign of the deformity always remained, even when the functional outcome was excellent.File in questo prodotto:
