Abstract
The purpose of this study was to review the clinical outcome of teenagers who had a resection of a symptomatic calcaneonavicular bar with interposition of the extensor digitorum brevis muscle. After a mean follow-up of almost 5 years, 22 patients were assessed symptomatically and functionally by means of a questionnaire. More than 95% were satisfied with the operation.
