Introduction: Idiopathic clubfoot or congenital talipes equinovarus is the most common orthopedic congenital deformity. Club foot affects roughly one in every 1000 live births, and it is bilateral in about half of the cases. The four components of a congenital club foot are cavus, adduction, varus, and equinus. The treatment's purpose is to address four abnormalities and keep them corrected so that the patient can have a functional, pain-free plantigrade foot. Aims: To identify the minimum set of outcomes that should be collected in clinical practice and reported in research related to the care of children with idiopathic congenital talipes equinovarus (CTEV). Materials and Methods: The present study was a Observational study. This Study was conducted from 03/08/2005 to 02/08/2007 at Ramakrishna Mission Seva Pratishthan, Vivekananda Institute of Medical Sciences. Total 37 patients were included in this study. Result: we found that a relatively low clinical outcome as compared to ndings by other authors who have reported excellent treatment outcomes that have ranged from 82.4% to 97% and In this study 62.6% of the patients reported no pain, an evidence of good functional outcomes associated with the Ponseti conservative method of treatment compared to the surgical soft tissue release. Conclusion: The functional outcomes are equally good with the majority of patients reporting no pain, being able to wear shoes of their liking and having no limitation during walking or running. This is a sign of an improved life style and quality of life and correlates with good patient and caregiver satisfaction.
Introduction: De Quervain tenosynovitis is rst described by Fritz de Quervain, in 1895. It involves tendon entrapment of the rst dorsal compartment of the wrist and thickening of the tendon sheaths of rst dorsal compartment the abductor pollicis longus and extensor pollicis brevis, where the tendons pass through the bro-osseous tunnel located along the radial styloid at the distal wrist. Pain is exacerbated by thumb movement and radial or ulnar deviation of the wrist. The prevalence of de Quervain tenosynovitis is about 0.5% in men and 1.3% in women with peak prevalence in their fourth and fth decades of life respectively. The present Materials and Methods: study was a prospective study. This Study was conducted from December 2021 to December 2022 at Department of Rampurhat Government Medical College and Hospital, West Bengal, India. In the total of 20 patients Result: were included, out of which 16 patients are female and 4 patients are male. Surgical release has excellent outcome; splinti Conclusion: ng and local steroid injection can be an alternative treatment option for DQ disease especially in patients with low grade disease.
