Ponseti casting method is the gold standard for the management of congenital talipes equinovarus in neonates, which consists of weekly manipulation and serial casting. Using oscillatory saw for cast removal is user-dependant and has been fraught with complications consisting of saw burns, thermal abrasions, anxiety, and fear of the saw (especially in children). The aim of this article is to describe our technique of cast removal using visual media format.This video describes an easy method of cast soakage with lukewarm water. Once the cast is soaked in water, the knob is identified, and the loosened outer layer of the cast is unwrapped in layers. Complete procedure can be done at home by parents. Since no equipment is utilized, the technique eliminates all complications associated with an oscillating saw.Cast soakage with lukewarm water followed by unwrapping is a simple and cost-effective method of Ponseti cast removal which can be done by parents at home improving the overall satisfaction of the family.
