A Study on the Treatment of Recurrent Clubfoot With the Tendon Release of Musculi Tibialis Posterior

December 26, 2019 updated by: Hongwen Xu, Guangzhou Women and Children's Medical Center

A Multicenter Study on the Treatment of Recurrent Clubfoot With the Tendon Release of Musculi Tibialis Posterior

The musculi tibialis posterior can adduct the foot, so releasing the tedon of the muscle can help to correct the deformity of the forefoot adduction.
