Abstract

1. An operation which can correct congenital club foot deformity in older children is described. 2. The operation is based on the assumption that the essential element in a complex tarsal deformity is a displacement of the navicular bone on the talus and that all other elements of the deformity are secondary and adaptive. 3. The results of the operation are noted and the implications of some of its effects are discussed.
