Abstract
1. We have considered torsional deformity in club feet and conclude that medial torsion does not occur in the tibia. 2. It is suggested that in uncorrected feet the hindfoot with the ankle mortise is laterally rotated. 3. We have discussed the cause, prevention and consequences of spurious correction by lateral rotation. 4. The "bean-shaped foot" seems an appropriate description of the final deformity as it is commonly seen.
