Abstract
After the reported successful outcomes in the short and long terms of the Ponseti method, it is universally agreed that this non-operational protocol is best in the initial treatment of clubfoot. (3,26,48)
. Regardless of the method used, the clubfoot treatment method should aim to achieve a plantigrade, pliable, painless foot that is functionally and cosmetically acceptable (48)
. These goals are thought to be achieved in a minimum of time with keeping the socio-economic life of the child and parents minimally interrupted. (2)
The Pirani scoring system is used and it reveals a very good inter-observer reliability and reproducibility and it is simple and easy to be applied in different clinical settings. (3,7,8, 24)
Since the classic Ponseti method involves several castings with weekly changes, it is often difficult for patients who reside in areas distant from medical centers and thus may suffer to reach these centers weekly.
