The foot of the modern man is a result of incomplete adaptation of
osteo-muscular and ligament apparatus to the changes of the gravitational
forces ratio. The human foot is in constant contact with the environment;
its basic movements are directed to its main task, namely, WALKING. One of
the most frequent anomalies considerably disturbing the foot function and,
thus, the act of walking itself is a congenital bent foot. In te paper the
clinic and radiological parameters for assessing the results of the children
who were operationally treated from the congenital bent foot (PEVC) are
defined. The period from 1985 do 2000 was analyzed as the time when at the
Clinic for Children Surgery and Orthopedics there were 112 children treated
from the idiopathic (structural) PEVC, more precisely, 72 boys and 40 girls.
The overall number of the operationally treated feet is 141. Acta Medica
