The initial treatment of idiopathic clubfoot was mostly surgical for the 1980s/1990s. In the latter half of the 1990s, there was a surge of interest in the Ponseti method of casting after the publication of Dr. Ponseti's 30-year results. Many authors have since shown correction rates in the high 90th percentile, rendering posteromedial release surgery almost obsolete. The success of the Ponseti method has been brought internationally and extrapolated to more and more difficult cases, such as idiopathic or syndromic, primary or recurrence. This new trend will create a different subset of complications.
