Before, After, Regression
This is a variety of photos of several children's feet who have Plantaris. There are before and after photos, as well as photos of regression.

Short and Fat
Kai's foot had never looked right after casting, but it progressively got worse. This is a really good view of the severe cavus (high arch) that makes the foot so much shorter than the other and the turning under of the outside toes. |
Medial and Lateral Creases
This shows the deep medial (across the sole) and lateral (at the edge of the foot) that are characteristic of Plantaris. The medial crease is due to the cavus. The lateral crease is due to the overcorrection of the forefoot while the midfoot is still in cavus.

Front View
This picture is of another child, Chelsea, before she went to see Dr Ponseti. Like Kai, she had been casted, had a tenotomy, and then her foot developed Plantaris. This front view shows the way the toes tend to curl under the outside of the foot. Kai's did the same thing but I was never able to get a good photo of it. |
