Biomechanical characteristics of different parts of the foot in congenital recurrent clubfoot

Abstract

Biomechanical parameters of the foot were studied in 25 patients aged 7-10 years with bilateral congenital recurrent clubfoot. Five groups of patients were studied depending on the type of deformity. The obtained data of the biomechanical characteristics of congenital recurrent clubfoot in children allowed us to objectively assess the degree of distribution of load on different parts of the foot, to identify the most pathological areas for different types of feet deformity that gave an opportunity to make their appropriate correction.
