Complete subtalar release in club feet. Part I--A preliminary report
GW Simons
The complete subtalar release is an extensive soft-tissue procedure for the
treatment of club foot that non-surgical methods have not corrected. It is
a more extensive surgical procedure than others currently in use. Two
advantages of this procedure are that it produces a greater degree of
correction than other procedures and that it provides superior alignment
between the foot and leg. The main disadvantage is a tendency to
overcorrection. In this report I present the steps in performing the
procedure and the anatomical concept on which it is based.
