Abstract

Background and Objectives: CLUBFOOT or PES EQUINOVARUS is one of the most common congenital foot anomalies observed in Iran, mainly in Azarbaijan. This has been well proved that the early diagnosis especially early proper treatment in newly born babies leads to successful results. The study was conducted on the patients with clubfeet who attended Shohada Hospital from year 1996 to 1998. twenty four selected patients were treated surgically by TURCO procedure, and the result from the point of success and failures were evaluated, and the main factors of failure or recurrence of this abnormality were pointed out. Materials and Methods: Out of 50 patients referred to the hospital, 24 patients were selected having 33 CLUBFOOT (9 patients being bilateral). All 33 feet were operated with TURCO surgical technique in Shohada surgical center.Results: Unfortunately the CLUBFOOT has a very high rate of recurrence and in our study this rate was 28%. This deformity affects boys (55%) slightly more than the girls and right side (58%) more than left. Mean age of operation was 1.9 years. It was found that the main factor for failure of this procedure was operation performed before 6 months and after 3 years of age. Within 28 % of recurrence there were: five cases who had the TURCO procedure done with no K. wire fixation. In one case the K-wire was removed too early. In 3 cases POP was removed in 6 weeks. In 3 other cases the TURCO procedure was not done classically. Four patients had excellent and 19 patients had good results, while 10 cases had recurrences.Conclusion: Considering the results, it is strongly suggested that the patients with CLUBFOOT should never be operated at age less that 6 months and not more than 3 years and the best age for surgical intervention is age between 1 to 2 years.
