[Profound necrosis--complication of the orthopedic treatment in congenital club foot. A case report].
The treatment of congenital club foot implies orthopaedic and operative methods. The complications of the treatment may result, in particular cases, from lack of follow-up and cooperation between the child parents and the doctor. These cases are a challenge for the orthopaedic surgeon, requiring multiple interventions and with a high morbidity. We present the case of a congenital club foot with profound necrosis secondary to a cast compression, which was not recognized by the parents.
