title: [The importance of the radiological angle between talus and calcaneus in patients with congenital clubfoot (author's transl)].
abstract: A reduction of the angle between the longitudinal axes of talus and calcaneus in the lateral X-ray view of a clubfoot is a sign of persistent supination of the subtalar joint and not due to anatomical changes of the bone. Correction of this deformity by closed manipulation produces a normal angle between talus and calcaneus. The angle between talus and calcaneus can thus be used as a guide for adequate correction of the subtalar deformity.
