Foot deformities in children with cerebral palsy

P A O'Connell et al. J Pediatr Orthop. 1998 Nov-Dec.

Abstract

Clinical observation suggests that deformities of the foot and ankle are common in children with cerebral palsy. Two hundred children with cerebral palsy attending the Central Remedial Clinic were examined and photographed. The children had no previous surgical intervention and were between 1.5 and 19 years of age. Deformities were assessed and related to the type of cerebral palsy and mobility status.
