Club foot. The deformed feet of a child with a form of talipes (club foot) called calcaneo cavus. This condition is a combination of talipes calcaneus,in which the foot is flexed and the patient walks on the heel,and talipes cavus,in which the arch of the foot is exaggerated. Talipes is a birth defect in which the foot is twisted out of shape,perhaps as a result of pressure on the feet during pregnancy. Treatment involves stretching the foot repeatedly into normal position and surgery to lengthen or move tendons | |
