Peroneal Nerve Dysfunction in Patients With Clubfoot Deformity: Evaluation of Clinical Presentation and Treatment

The congenital foot drop associated with congenital talipes equinovarus (CTEV) deformity secondary to common peroneal nerve injury is rare. Moreover, the foot drop may even be completely overlooked when associated with clubfoot due to its similar appearance. We report a case of peroneal nerve dysfunction in a child with a late presentation of congenital clubfoot who underwent tibialis posterior transfer to improve mobility and function.
