Clinical and radiographic evaluation of Ponseti method for neonate congenital clubfoot
The Ponseti method has been proven to be highly effective in achieving functional correction in children with congenital clubfoot. However, radiographic images in this study revealed differences in tarsal bone morphology. Therefore, further long-term studies are necessary to evaluate the durability of these corrections and their impact on functional mobility in adulthood. The future study should also aim to clarify the causes of observed morphological alterations.
