Talipes (Club Foot)

Congenital Tallipes Equino-Varus (CTEV)

Commonly known as Clubfoot, CTEV is managed using the internationally regarded Ponsetti Method. As early as possible treatment begins with gentle manipulation and serial casting. Bracing with the Dennis Browne Boots and Bar often follows casting and is the standard orthosis to assist with re-positioning and stretching of the foot and ankle during the early stages of growth.
