Talectomy for equinovarus deformity in myelodysplasia

T Trumble, JV Banta, JF Raycroft and BH Curtis

Nine patients with myelomeningocele (seventeen involved feet) had talectomy for the correction of equinovarus deformity. The age at surgery ranged from one year and eight months to seven years and four months old. The length of follow-up averaged seven years and four months and ranged from twenty-two months to twelve years. Fifteen feet had a good and two had a poor correction of the deformity of the hind part of the foot, the result being directly related to the intraoperative correction of the equinus deformity. The correction of the fore part of the foot was rated as good in eight, fair in one, and poor in eight feet. Residual deformity of the fore part of the foot compromised the functional result in six feet that had an acceptable correction of the deformity of the hind part.
