congenital raised toe valgus foot

Introduction

Introduction to congenital toe valgus Congenital toe valgus is a common posture foot deformity characterized by full back extension and valgus. More women than men, the ratio is about 1:0.6. This disease is more common in the first baby, which may be related to the uterus of the primipara, the tension is high, and the abdominal muscles are also tight. The above situation is likely to cause the fetus to be mechanically compressed in the third trimester of pregnancy, thereby causing abnormal posture of the foot. basic knowledge The proportion of illness: 0.001% Susceptible people: young children Mode of infection: non-infectious Complications:

Cause

Congenital toe valgus

This disease is more common in the first child, which may be related to the uterus of the primipara, the tension is high, and the abdominal muscles are also relatively tight. The above situation may cause the fetus to be mechanically compressed in the third trimester of pregnancy, causing abnormal posture of the foot.

Prevention

Congenital toe valgus prevention

The disease is a congenital disease, no effective preventive measures, early diagnosis and early treatment is the key to the prevention and treatment of this disease.

Complication

Congenital toe valgus foot complications Complications

For children with valgus, the long-term cause of dysplasia of the foot; cause talus, scaphoin inward, lateral calcaneus, tibia dysplasia, calcane valgus; presence of forefoot abduction, medial The edge of the sag (more obvious after the sacral muscle paralysis) can also cause pain in the medial aspect of the foot and anterior plantar, and painful spasm can occur.

Symptom

After the child is born, the foot extension and valgus deformity can be found. In severe cases, the back of the foot can be in contact with the skin in front of the tibia. At the same time, due to the increased tension of the dorsal and lateral soft tissues, the plantar flexion and varus activity are limited.

Examine

Examination of congenital toe valgus

After the child is born, the patient can find the back extension and valgus deformity. In severe cases, the back of the foot can be in contact with the skin in front of the tibia. There is no special performance in the auxiliary examination. For example, no abnormal findings are found on the X-ray examination, and there is no inter-bone joint. Subluxation, and no dysplasia of the primary humeral ossification center.

Diagnosis

Diagnosis and diagnosis of congenital toe valgus

The disease is easy to diagnose, but sometimes it needs to be differentiated from the paralytic toe valgus foot caused by the incomplete closure of the neural tube.

(1) Paralytic valgus valgus has calf triceps, muscle strength of the posterior tibial muscle or toe long flexor is weakened, and X-ray examination can find laminar vertebral fissures below 3,4.

(2) Congenital vertical talus is a convex valgus foot caused by dislocation of the scaphoid joint. Because the talus head is displaced to the ankle and foot, the bony bulge can be touched on the sole of the foot, and the talus lateral plane can be found to be vertical. The central axis of the talus is located on the posterior and temporal sides of the tibia.
