Abstract:
The topic of pes cavus has, for many years, been the object of much discussion, with numerous literary works dedicated to its etiology and treatment. Anterior tarsal resection was presented in the literature over 50 years ago. The authors describe a rationale for performing this procedure as well as other adjunct soft tissue procedures for the correction of a rigid anterior global cavus with its apex at the navicular cuneiform joint.
