Hi Tony
According to mother the ankle has always been rigid - not certain about
calcaneo-valgus though, the rearfoot realtionship appears normal enough to
me. What she did comment was that the 'leg took a while to come down',
which I took to meen the hip was flexed and possibly was subject to
restricted ROM also for a while. This has now resolved by the ankle
problem remains.
I agreee that gradual manipulation is probably the way forward but remain
curious as to the aetiology. Is this condition common and if so does intra-
uterine position contribute to other developmental anomalies?
