  • Title: What's New in Severe Deformity Correction: The German Perspective.
    Author: Schmitt S, Peak AC, Berrsche G, Wenz W.
    Journal: Foot Ankle Clin; 2016 Jun; 21(2):219-36. PubMed ID: 27261803.
    Abstract:
    Foot deformities are found in several neurologic conditions, most typically, but not exclusively, Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease. Posttraumatic deformities and undercorrection or overcorrection of congenital talipes equinovarus are also encountered. A severely deformed foot that cannot fit into normal shoes presents a significant day-to-day challenge to the young and active patient. This article presents some basic principles for evaluating the deformity and a toolkit of procedures to deal with these complex cases.
