  • Title: Severe post-burn hyperextension of metatarsophalangeal joints in a child with bilateral foot contracture.
    Author: Constantino JA, Rodriguez-Yuste JA, Quiles M.
    Journal: J Foot Ankle Surg; 2007; 46(1):48-51. PubMed ID: 17198953.
    Abstract:
    Achieving a stable plantigrade foot after repair of complex post-burn deformities poses a particularly difficult challenge for the foot and ankle surgeon. We report an unusual case of a child with severe bilateral forefoot contracture deformities treated by soft tissue release and lengthening, and conventional wound coverage with split-thickness skin grafting.
