Congenital Diastasis of the Inferior Tibiofibular Joint With Clubfoot and Imperforate Anus
The Journal of Foot and Ankle Surgery, 03/23/07

Ish K. Dhammi MS,et al. - Congenital diastasis of the inferior tibiofibular joint is a rare condition of unknown etiology, first described in 1972. Although its clinical presentation at birth is a talipes equinovarus deformity of the foot, it may be associated with limb length discrepancy and other skeletal and visceral abnormalities...We propose that if the reconstructed joint is carried out in early childhood, it will provide better reciprocal joint surfaces with less chances of degenerative arthritis in later life. However, leg length inequality and recurrence of the deformities are not uncommon, necessitating further surgical interventions
