Results of radical posteromedial release (RPMR) in neglected CTEV: A prospective clinical study
Journal Title: Medpulse International Journal of Orthopedics - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 1
Abstract
Objective: The aims of treatment are to give supple, flexible, pliable and cosmetically acceptable plantigrade foot in patients of neglected ctev with minimum complications by RPMR. The objectives are to find the correlation between clinical results and with radiological findings. Methods: It is prospective study of treatment of CTEV. Total 30 patients of neglected ctev were studied. These patients were operated by Radical posteromedial release (RPMR). All relevant pre and perioperative information and complications were recorded. Also assessment of functional outcome was made. Results: In present series satisfactory results (excellent and good) were noted in 35 feet (74.46%) and unsatisfactory results (fair and poor) in 12 feet (25.54%). Conclusion: Radical posteromedial release (RPMR) is very helpful in treating neglected congenital talipus equionovarus ( CTEV ) patients.
