Issue Date: | 1997 | Citation: | Hee, H.-T., Lee, E.-H. (1997). Surgical results of clubfoot using Carroll's approach. Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery 5 (2) : 77-89. ScholarBank@NUS Repository. | Abstract: | A retrospective study was conducted on 58 severe idiopathic clubfeet in 40 children treated surgically using Carroll's approach between 1984 and 1995. All had serial manipulation and casting initially. Postoperative follow-up averaged 5.5 years. Clinical and radiographic analysis using criteria modified from Porat revealed 85% good and excellent results. Carroll's approach allows for complete soft tissue releases and gives good long term results. | Source Title: | Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery | URI: | http://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/133804 | ISSN: | 10225536 |
