Unexplained inflammation and deformity of the foot

Hospital Medicine, 2004
A 64-year-old Caucasian man was referred to a specialist diabetic foot clinic with unexplained deformity of the left foot. The problem had started an indeterminate time earlier – possibly 2 weeks. There was no history of trauma or of any underlying significant medical problem. The foot was displaced laterally, suggesting distortion of the tarsal bones.

Posttraumatic Cavovarus Deformity of the Foot

Journal of Pediatric Orthopaedics, 1999
The peroneus longus has long been known as a plantar flexor of the first ray, which, with muscle imbalance as seen in neurovascular disease, can lead to cavovarus of the foot. This article describes a traumatic laceration of the peroneus brevis that went on to cause cavovarus presumably by its inactivity as an everter of the foot.

The Cavovarus Foot Deformity

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1989
The cavovarus foot is a complex deformity of the forefoot and hindfoot, frequently of neuropathologic etiology. A progressive spinal or peripheral neuromuscular disorder must be excluded by a thorough clinical evaluation. With the failure of nonoperative modalities, surgical options depend on patient age, etiology of the deformity, and the ...

Foot Deformity in Myotonic Dystrophy

Foot & Ankle, 1984
Myotonic dystrophy is a progressive multisystem disorder that may be inherited from either parent, although only children with affected mothers usually show the more severe congenital form of the condition; others are classified as having adult myotonic dystrophy. Since 1940, 29 patients with myotonic dystrophy (10 adult, 17 congenital, two unclassifed)

Cavus Foot Deformity in Children

Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, 2003
A cavus deformity of the foot is easily recognizable, but appropriate neurologic assessment can help to determine the etiology. Cavovarus, the most frequent type of cavus foot, presents with an elevated medial longitudinal arch, first ray plantarflexion, and, if rigid, a fixed heel varus.

Foot Deformities in Infants and Children

Pediatric Clinics of North America, 1986
Foot deformities may reflect a generalized disorder, especially a neurologic problem; thus, the child should have a brief general examination. Many infantile foot deformities, such as calcaneovalgus, are postural and self-correcting. Metatarsus varus is not referred for treatment until age 2 months and then only if the deformity is moderate or severe ...

Congenital talipes equinovarus (CTEV) and other skeletal abnormalities can be diagnosed prenatally by ultrasound scan. If diagnosed, clinicians should be cautiously optimistic with the parents, particularly if the talipes diagnosed is isolated and not associated with other foetal abnormalities. There is no correlation between the prenatal appearance of
