Popis: INTRODUCTION: Flexible flatfoot refers to the loss of the medial longitudinal arch of the foot on weight bearing and is associated with excessive heel eversion or forefoot abduction. Unless symptomatic, flexible flatfeet are best managed non-operatively. The calcaneo-cuboid-cuneiform osteotomy is a procedure that restores the anatomical shape of the foot without arthrodesis of the joints. Our study aims to evaluate the functional and radiological outcomes of patients treated with calcaneo-cuboid-cuneiform osteotomy in patients with planovalgus feet. METHODOLOGY: A retrospective review of records and radiographs of patients with symptomatic flexible planovalgus feet, who were operated with the calcaneo-cuboid-cuneiform osteotomy by a single senior surgeon in a time period between April 2016 and July 2017 was done. The clinical and radiological outcomes were evaluated in 12 feet in 8 children. RESULTS: A total of 12 feet in 8 children were operated (6 males and 2 females). Average age of patients was 11 ± 1.27 years; average follow up was 14.7 months ± 2.7 months. Two patients had planovalgus feet secondary to spastic diplegia and 6 had idiopathic planovalgus feet. There was a statistically significant improvement in the pain score as well as the radiographic parameters in all the operated patients. CONCLUSION: The calcaneo-cuboid-cuneiform osteotomy has potential to give good results for symptomatic planovalgus feet with minimal complications.
