Abstract
Congenital talipes equinovarus (CTEV), a prevalent congenital anomaly, is characterized by the backward bending of the hindfoot, the inward turning of the midfoot, and the turning or tilting of the front foot. The likelihood of experiencing clubfoot is higher in males and among firstborn offspring. Both genetic and environmental elements are recognized as factors that play a role in the occurrence of this developmental irregularity. It is diagnosed clinically because the abnormality has been visible since childhood, where one or both feet point downward and inward. If the deformity is not addressed, tarsal bones and joints will stiffen over time, further causing an inability to walk and stand, causing additional limb deformities. Late presentations are typical in less developed nations because of a lack of awareness, access to care, or a holdup in referral. We have a case of a seven-year-old spastic cerebral palsy (CP) male child with congenital talipes equinovarus. While assessing, we found visible deformities at the knee and ankle joints. Wedge osteotomy and Achilles tendon lengthening surgery were performed. Probably, extensive soft tissue surgery is the best option for treating clubfoot. A physical therapist may use stretching, proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF), joint mobilization, and joint compression to enhance the foot's alignment, mobility, and range of motion (ROM) to keep the joint in the correct position. Physical therapy greatly reduced stiffness. The physiotherapy treatment plan we used was highly beneficial in enhancing the patient's quality of life, increasing his level of independence, and enhancing his participation in his activities of daily living (ADLs).
