TRANSFER OF THE TIBIALIS ANTERIOR TENDON FOR RELAPSED CLUB-FOOT

J. E. Critchley 1; and R. G. Taylor 1

1 Wingfield-Morris Orthopaedic Hospital, Oxford

1 . Twenty-two cases of transplantation of the tibialis anterior for relapsed club-foot have been reviewed. Results were good in sixteen cases, fair in two and bad in four.

2. The operation and routine treatment are described.

3. The reasons for the four failures are discussed.

4. It is concluded that the operation is well worth while, and will often avoid the need for bony stabilisation at a later date.
