Johns Hopkins Web Search Patient Guide to Clubfoot What is clubfoot? The affected foot tends to be smaller than normal and can be shortened by up to 1 cm as compared to the normal side. In addition, some children with clubfoot have stiffness (i.e. lack of mobility in some of the joints of the foot) and small calf muscles. Clubfoot occurs 1 in 1000 births, equally in males and females. In half of the cases, both feet are affected. When this happens, one foot is usually affected more than the other. What causes clubfoot? There are two categories of clubfoot. The first and most severe type is associated with other congenital (or genetic) abnormalities or problems occurring when the fetus is inside the mother's uterus. These include neurogenic conditions (spinal dysraphism, tethered cord, arthrogyrposis), connective tissue disorders (Larsen's syndrome, diastrophic dwarfism), and mechanical conditions (oligohydramnios, or congenital constriction bands) which are beyond the scope of this patient guide. The second type of clubfoot is less severe and is called "idiopathic" which means "of unknown cause." Treatment of children in this group tends to be more successful.

In 1993 when Evan was born the internet was just a baby too. We didn't know where to turn for information about his conditions. We made our decisions based on what our Doctors told us. We knew nothing about non-surgical methods of treating clubfeet and as a result Evan had clubfoot surgery. Hopefully this site will help others to find information and support. What is Clubfoot? Clubfoot or talipes is a congenital deformity of the foot that occurs in approximately 1:1000 births with half of them being bi-lateral (both feet) and it is twice as common in boys as in girls. The foot has a typical appearance of pointing downwards and twisted inwards. Since the condition starts in the first trimester of pregnancy, the deformity is quite established at birth, and is often very rigid. There are three main types of defects: Equinovarus - This is the most severe type. The foot is twisted inward and downward so that the child cannot place the sole flat on the ground but must walk on the ball, the side, or even the top of the foot.

Prematurity Quick Reference and Fact Sheets Clubfoot and Other Foot Deformities Clubfoot is a word used to describe certain ankle and foot abnormalities usually present at birth. The defect can be mild or severe and it can involve one foot or both. The medical term for clubfoot is equinovarus. There also are a number of other milder foot deformities that may appear similar. How common is clubfoot? Clubfoot is one of the most common birth defects. Severe forms of clubfoot affect some 5,000 babies (about 1 in 735) born in the United States each year. Boys are affected with severe forms of clubfoot twice as often as girls. Mild foot deformities are even more common, with both sexes affected in approximately equal numbers. How does clubfoot affect a child? An affected foot points downward, with the toes turned inward and the bottom of the foot twisted inward. If both feet are "clubbed," the toes point toward each other instead of straight ahead. The foot bones, ankle joints, and muscles and ligaments of the foot may be abnormal. The heel cord often is very tight, making it impossible to bring the foot up to a normal position without a specialist’s help.
