Abstract |
The adolescent neglected clubfoot is mostly treated in humanitarian programs by those with a great deal of surgical experience. This deformity needs a major correction, which can compromise the blood circulation and wound healing. A bony correction is preferable over an isolated soft tissue release. The extreme Lambrinudi arthrodesis with a double incision is therefore a preferred tool to correct a neglected clubfoot.
