Revised tarsectomy for correction of relapsed clubfoot.

A modification of the wedge tarsectomy used for correction of components of talipes equinovarus that helps preserve the length of the foot is presented. The procedure is demonstrated with the report of a case that was treated successfully. Correction of deformity in all three body planes in the relation of the forefoot to the rearfoot can be achieved with this combination tarsectomy-bone graft procedure that will simultaneously prevent gross shortening of the foot.
