TitleLeft foot and leg, congenital deformity
DescriptionLeft foot and leg, showing congenital deformity.
From an infant in whom the condition was bilateral and symmetrical. The left leg seems well developed. The foot is in the position valgus, the part distal to the calcaneocuboid and talonavicular joints being deflected laterally and towards the anterolateral aspect of the leg. The defect is primarily muscular and probably of the extensor digitorum brevis except its medial segment, the extensor hallucis brevis. That the defect is not primarily osseous is proved by the right limb which was symmetrically affected but when cleared of their soft part presents no deformity.
