INTRODUCTION: Congenital talipes equinovarus (CTEV) or clubfoot is commonest congenital foot deformity. The incidence of Congenital Idiopathic Clubfoot ranges from 0.36/1000 to 6.8/1000 in some populations and about 1.2/1000 births among Caucasians including Indians, with a 1 much higher occurrence in the affected families . More common in male (2:1). Bilateral cases account for about 50%. In unilateral cases right side affected more. The term talipes is derived from talus (ankle bone) and pes (foot). AIMS & OBJECTIVES:To assess the efcacy of gradual differential distraction with JESS as a method of treatment in neglected CTEV. Evaluation of functional recovery of neglected CTEVusing this technique. To assess the morbidity & complication of the technique. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Study area: - The study was institution based, conducted at the Orthopaedics department of I.P.G.M.E.R.& S.S.K.M. Hospital, Kolkata, a tertiary care centre catering to people of West Bengal and adjacent states of Eastern India Study population: Patients attending Orthopedics' O.P.D. of IPGMER & SSKM Hospital. Study period: From May 2016 to Oct 2017 (18 months duration) Sample size: 20 patients (24 feet) Sample design: Patient selection: RESULTS AND ANALYSIS: 2(8.3%) patients exion deformity of toes. 1(4.2%) Persitant cavus, 1(4.2%) had liniar skin necrosis, 1(4.2%) patients had pressure sore, 1(4.2%) had oedema of feet, 1(4.2%) persistent all deformity, 2(8.3%) patients had persistan tequinus, 5(20.8%) patients had persistant heel varus, 2(8.3%) patients had forfoot adduction, 3(12.5%) patients had pin tract infection and 11(45.8%) had no complication. 4(16.7%) patients had excellent functional outcome, 8(33.3%) patients had good functional outcome, 8(33.3%) patients had moderate functional outcome and 4(16.7%) patients had poor functional outcome. CONCLUSION: In our study 12(82.3%) feet had excellent to moderate result, only 4(16.7%) had poor result with limited complication. Few patients left with one or more persistent deformity but the nal outcome was functionally satisfactory. JESS is an excellent technique in the management of neglected cases of CTEV especially when it is done at an early age. Differential distraction by JESS xator for the correction of neglected idiopathic CTEV is an effective and patient-friendly method of management. Therefore the differential distraction with JESS can be considered as a treatment modality for the neglected CTEV.

Introduction: Equinovarus foot deformity is a significant problem in adolescents and its treatment remains challenging. Triple arthrodesis, even though an effective palliative tool in management of complex foot deformity, has its own limitations if it is done for acute deformity correction. Ilizarov technique offers gradual deformity correction, fusion and takes care of many known complications of acute correction. However, there are very few studies about effectiveness and functional outcome of triple arthrodesis for equinovarus deformity when done gradually with an Ilizarov fixator. Aim: To study the effectiveness of triple arthrodesis, performed with Ilizarov technique for equinovarus foot deformity in adolescents and adults and to evaluate the early functional outcome and patient satisfaction rate for this procedure. Materials and Methods: A retrospective analysis of 22 feet in 20 patients with equinovarus foot deformity between January 2015 and December 2018 was done. Patients underwent gradual deformity correction and triple fusion with Ilizarov fixator. Foot was assessed for any residual deformity and shortening. Functional outcome and patient satisfaction were assessed by Ankle Hind Foot Scale (AHFS) and Likert scale, respectively using paired t-test. Final analysis was done with Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) software version 21.0. Results: Twelve males and eight females with mean age of 15.9±3.4 years fulfilled the inclusion criteria and were included for final analysis of results. Fusion rate was 86.1% with mean union time of 12.5 weeks. Mean AHFS improved from 61.27 before surgery to 76.9 which was statistically significant (p<0.0001). One or more complications were seen in 15 (68.1%) feet but were managed satisfactorily without any significant impact on final outcome. Patient satisfaction rate for the procedure was 80%. After a mean follow-up of 18.1 months, plantigrade foot with equal foot length was obtained in all patients. Conclusion: Triple arthrodesis with gradual deformity correction by Ilizarov technique effectively corrects equinovarus foot deformity and foot length discrepancy. Known complications of acute deformity correction can be avoided with equally good results. It corrects deformity and restores alignment of foot more accurately leading to a high patient satisfaction rate.
