Summary

The purpose of this study is to:

1. compare structural variations observed in the calf and foot of the clubfoot mouse model(pma)with human clubfoot patients antenatally and postnatally;
2. identify features that might be used in future large scale studies to delineate a subtype of human clubfoot associated with lack of response to standard 'Ponseti' manipulation treatments.

Conditions

  • Clubfoot

Interventions

OTHER

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) of calf and foot

Detailed 3-D comparison of MRI scans of children with clubfoot and controls without clubfoot in utero, in untreated infants and in older children who have been treated.
