Achilles tenotomy is considered as both standard of care for treatment of clubfoot and as a very safe procedure with a low complication rate. We are looking to estimate if the incidence of Achilles tendon rupture after tenotomy, and in the pediatric/adolescent (<18 years old) population at large, is more common than previously reported. Additionally, we are gathering information on general treatment protocols for these patients.

Please think back to the patients you have seen/treated. For the purposes of this study, please only report on patients who were under 18 years old at the time of the injury. If needed, we also encourage you to review the medical record for any relevant patients.
