[Late results of correction of flatfoot in children using an electro-myostimulation method].
The authors present long-term results of employing electromyostimulation for the correction of static platypodia in 160 children aged 2-16. By means of electromyostimulation affecting the vault-supporting muscles of the crus and of the foot persistent correction of the vault was achieved in 68.75% of the children. The best effect was observed in children aged 2-5 with stage III of platypodia. The method of electromyostimulation may be successfully applied in the conditions of a polyclinic in combination with other well-known methods.
