WHAT DOES TALIPES MEAN IN ENGLISH?

talipes

Club foot

A club foot or clubfoot, also called congenital talipes equinovarus, is a congenital deformity involving one foot or both. The affected foot appears to have been rotated internally at the ankle. Without treatment, people with club feet often appear to walk on their ankles or on the sides of their feet. However with treatment, the vast majority of patients recover completely during early childhood and are able to walk and participate in athletics as well as patients born without CTEV. Congenital talipes equinovarus or clubfoot is a common foot abnormality present at birth. In babies with clubfoot the tissues connecting the muscles to the bones are shorter than usual causing their feet to be twisted. The ankle can be twisted at a sharp angle making the foot resemble a golf club, hence the name. The severity of clubfoot can range from mild to severe with half of affected babies having both feet affected. It is a relatively common birth defect, occurring in about one in every 1,000 live births. Approximately half of people with clubfoot have it affect both feet, which is called bilateral club foot. In most cases it is an isolated dysmelia.
