  • Plosko stopalo pri otroku, zgodnje odkrivanje in obravnava = Flat foot in the child, early detection and treatment
    Brecelj, Janez
    The author summarizes the results of survey studies by renowned child orthopaedists on the flexible flat foot in children. In the introduction he presents the normal development of the foot and the ... extent of anatomic varieties, which are functionally equivalent and regarded as normal. Further he explains the definition of the flexible flat foot and based on the studies he substantiates not only the uselessness but also even the detrimental effectof various orthoses, which had been prescribed for such feet for many years. The flexible flat foot will develop best in wide, soft footwear, without any "orthopaedic" aids, or even bare. In a separate chapter he points out the particularities of skeletal development, which must be specially considered when examining the child's feet. In conclusion, based on his own experience, the author stresses the difficult role of the physician who is exposed to the pressure exerted by parents, grandparents and all those concerned with the well being of the child with flat feet. In such cases the fastest solution for both sides is a prescription for arch supports. Such a decision, however, will result in permanent damage for the child.
