ABSTRACT The correlation of anteromedial foot bimalleolar angle with Pirani score evaluated prospectively in 120 children (204 feet) with congenital talipes equinovarus (CTEV). The patients were divided into groups I, II and III based on clinical severity before casting, having the Pirani score 0 to 2, 2.5 to 4 and 4.5 to 6 respectively. Mean foot bimalleolar angle 75.75°, 67.62° and 58.28° of groups I, II and III respectively was correlated by standard deviation with their Pirani scores to evaluate the severity difference among the groups before initiation of the casting treatment. The change in clinical severity or Pirani score was further correlated with the change in mean foot bimalleolar angle at the time of completion of casting and before bracing. The foot bimalleolar angle is an objective, quantitative and reproducible method which can be used to classify, prognosticate and to monitor the progress of the treatment. Background The prospective observational study on role of foot bimalleolar angle against the Pirani scoring in clinical evaluation of club foot in 120 children (204 feet) with mean age of 5.4 months treated by Ponseti technique of casting.

Background and objective: The accelerated protocol of Ponseti method was suggested to shorten the period of treatment of the conventional one for the cases of talipes equinovarus deformity. This study aimed to compare the accelerated protocol of Ponseti method in the treatment of clubfoot deformity with the conventional one. Methods: A prospective comparative study was conducted for infants less than six months with congenital talipes equinovarus deformity. The patients were randomized to either Group 1 (casts changed every week, conventional protocol of Ponseti method) or Group 2 (twice weekly, accelerated one). Pirani score was used to assess the severity of the deformity at presentation, at time of last cast removal, and at the last follow up visit (6th months). Results: The patients included were 48 cases with 79 feet. Group 1 (39 clubfeet) had a mean Pirani score of 5.6 (± 1.15) at presentation, which dropped to 0.47 (± 0.41) when the last cast was removed. In Group 2 (40 clubfeet), it dropped from 5.57 (± 0.83) to 0.77 (± 0.01). The result of each treatment protocol was significant, but the difference between them was not significant. Five cases (three patients aged more than three months) of Group 2 needed eight casts to reach an acceptable position of correction. The difference between the mean number of casts applied in Group 1 (5.09) and Group 2 (5.82) was statistically not significant. However, the difference between the mean number of days spent in the cast was significant. The complications occurred in 12 out of 79 feet, with no statistically significant difference between both groups. Conclusion: The accelerated protocol of Ponseti method for treating clubfoot deformity is as effective and as safe as the conventional one. It shortens the time required to complete the treatment program. Those who present lately (beyond the age of three months) may require an additional number of casts.
