ABSTRACT
Twenty-three patients with 32 congenital rigid clubfeet treated by posteromedial release were reviewed after a follow-up averaging 33 months. The feet were assessed both clinically and radiologically; a satisfactory result was obtained in 17 feet inspite of residual deformity of forefoot adduction. Early operation and adequate postoperative immobilisation were major factors in contributing to a satisfactory result.
