El pie zambo es una deformidad congénita en la que el pie presenta una deformidad en equino, varo de retropié, aductus del antepié y cavo. Su tratamiento ha variado con el tiempo. Clásicamente se trataba mediante distintas técnicas quirúrgicas que permitían corregir todas las deformidades pero que se acompañaban de frecuentes complicaciones a corto y largo plazo. Actualmente el tratamiento más extendido de esta deformidad es el tratamiento conservador mediante la técnica de Ponseti que consiste en la aplicación de una secuencia específica de manipulaciones y yesos, una tenotomía del tendón de Aquiles, el uso de una ortesis y estrategias para tratar posibles recidivas. A continuación describimos las características de esta deformidad así como su tratamiento actua
Clubfoot is a congenital deformity in which the foot has a deformity in equinus, varus of the hindfoot, adductus of the forefoot and cavus. Its treatment has varied over time. Classically different surgical techniques were used, allowing the correction of all deformities, but they were accompanied by frequent short and long term complications. Currently, the most widespread treatment of this deformity is the conservative treatment by the Ponseti technique, which involves the application of a specific sequence of manipulations and casting, an Achilles tenotomy, the use of a brace and strategies to deal with potential recurrences. Here we describe the features of this deformity and its current treatment.
