Comparison Between Calcaneal Lengthening Osteotomy and Calcaneo-Stop Procedure in the Surgical Treatment of Idiopathic Flatfoot in Children: Retrospective Cohort Study
Both CL osteotomy and the C-stop procedure showed satisfactory radiologic and clinical outcomes for correcting pediatric flatfoot deformities. Clinicians should take into account that the C-stop procedure is less invasive, and requires a shorter immobilization period compared with CL osteotomy, but it necessitates a secondary procedure for screw removal.
