Abstract

Understanding of the adult acquired flatfoot deformity (AAFD) continues to grow, as does the sophistication of orthotics and braces used to treat this disorder. This article reviews these advances and some of the devices commonly used to treat patients who have AAFD. Additionally, the recent proliferation and potential implications of mass-manufactured products is discussed.
