Angiography of the feet in four children with bilateral congenital club foot and in one child with congenital convex pes valgus revealed vascular abnormalities which may increase the risk of vascular insufficiency after corrective procedures for deformities of the feet. Preoperative vascular mapping of the feet can be helpful in planning patient management.
