ABSTRACT

Klippel-Trénaunay-Weber syndrome (KTWS) is a rare condition characterized by a classic clinical triad. However, it can also have other features, such as cavocarus foot deformity, which is a rare presentation in a patient with KTWS. In this case report, we present our surgical technique of correcting such a complex deformity. Also, there are no other similar cases reported in the literature. An 18-year-old girl who is a known case of KTWS with a complaint of progressive unilateral left foot deformity. Her examination, revealed a rigid pes cavus with an equinus deformity in the left foot. Radiography of the left foot revealed marked cavus as well as hindfoot and forefoot varus. A successful surgical correction of the deformity was described in a stepwise fashion. The management of foot cavocarus deformity in KTWS patients is associated with high intra- and post-operative risk due to its complexity. Therefore, the management requires a multidisciplinary team approach.
