Aims and objectives

There are many foot deformities and malformations seen in children around the world, some of which are best managed with surgical correction. Careful preoperative and intraoperative assessment and decision making is important, and this ICL will highlight the indications, contraindications and techniques for the most commonly performed foot osteotomies in children. Didactic presentations and case presentations / panel discussion will be used. The faculty will be led by Dr. Vincent Mosca and Dr. Steven Frick, widely acknowledged as world leaders in paediatric foot disorders, and the target audience is pediatric orthopaedic surgeons.
