Abstract
Mild to moderate cavus deformity creates a dilemma in terms of surgical decision-making. The decision to pursue osteotomy or arthrodesis is not always clear. This article provides a framework for guiding management of these deformities, followed by a detailed surgical approach to correcting moderate cavus deformities, which emphasizes the use of a midfoot osteotomy-arthrodesis.Entities:
