A Comparative Analysis of Posteromedial Soft Tissue Release and Differential Distraction with JESS Fixator in Neglected and Resistant CTEV
Journal Title: Journal of Bone and Joint Diseases - Year 2018, Vol 0, Issue 0
Abstract
Club foot is amongst the most common of congenital deformities.CTEV is a complex three dimensional deformity having four components- equinus,varus ,adduction and cavus.e present study was conducted to compare the results of PMSTR and JESS xator in neglected, resistant and relapsed or recurrent club foot .is prospective study comprising of 36 children, was conducted in the department of orthopedics,S.N.Medical College Agra. Preoperative none of the feet in either group had a clinical satisfactory rating but aer surgery a significant improvement was seen. Of the 25 feet subjected to PMSTR procedure it was observed that 16 feet (64%)were in the category of satisfactory rating where all the 9 clinical criteria were in satisfactory range (36 %) had unsatisfactory result. Of the 22 feet subjected to Differential Distraction Method using JESS FIXATOR it was observed that 19 feet (77.3%) were in the category of satisfactory rating, where all the 9 criteria were in satisfactory range, unsatisfactory result were seen in 5 feet (22.7%).
