The Ponseti Method for the Treatment of Clubfoot in Distal Arthrogryposis

Matthew B. Dobbs, MD

 
Clubfoot occurs in approximately one in 1000 live births and is one of the most common congenital birth defects. Although there have been several reports of successful treatment of idiopathic clubfoot with the Ponseti method, the use of this method for the treatment of other forms of clubfoot has not been reported. The purpose of the JBJS manuscript by Matthew B. Dobbs, MD, et.al was to evaluate the early results of the Ponseti method when used for the treatment of clubfoot associated with distal arthrogryposis. Their conclusion was that early-term results support the use of the Ponseti method for the initial treatment of distal arthrogrypotic clubfoot deformity. In this JBJS/VJO video supplement to the article the Ponseti Method for the treatment of clubfoot in distal arthrogryposis is reviewed.
