Abstract
Nineteen patients with 22 relapsing clubfeet were treated by tibialis anterior transfer underneath the extensor retinaculum. This operation is indicated in cases of relapse in which the clubfoot is still supple. It is not indicated in cases with subtalar rigidity. The results were excellent in 19 cases, fair in 2 and poor in one. The fair and poor results were attributable to faulty technique or errors of indication.Entities:
