Use of peritalar release operation in neglected convex pes valgus (Early results of 7 feet)

Abstract

The aim of this study was to analyze the early results of 7 feet with neglected convex pes valgus treated by peritalar release. Seven convex feet of 5 children (4 female and 1 male) were surgically treated between the dates November 1992 and August 1997. Average age at operation was 4 years (1.5-7.5 years). None of the feet had a previous treatment. Two patients were involved bilaterally. In three patients associated conditions (diastematomyelia, sacral agenesis and myelomeningocel) were present. Surgical procedure consisted of reduction and fixation with K-wire of talonavicular joint after the release of all peritalar soft tissue contractures. While performing peritalar release. Cincinatti incision was used in 3 and combined posteromedial and lateral incisions in 4 feet. Two feet were reoperated. Avascular necrosis of talus, pes calcaneus and dorsal subluxation of navicula were the observed complications in 3 feet. Follow-up period ranged from 12 to 64 months with an average of 31 months. At the latest follow-up all feet were evaluated by Walker and associates' scoring system. According to this scoring system five of seven feet were considered to have a satisfactory outcome. All of these feet were operated on between 1.5 and 4 years of age. Two feet of one child had unsatisfactory results and age at operation was 7 and 7.5 years respectively. In conclusion, peritalar release was considered to be a satisfying surgical procedure in children between 1.5 and 4 years of age who had convex pes valgus.
