Beatrix Urbanek

Case report about a new-born with a subluxation calcanei of 170-180° after birth, a severe form of the peso calcaneus. The right fibulae were shifted caudally and bent the talus and the calcaneus into inversion. The forefoot was lying against the shin. The neonatologist wanted the right foot to be plastered. At the osteopathic treatment the mobility of the pedal bones was very good and the baby loved his foot beeing mobilized. So the parents didn´t agree the neonatologist and wanted to wait for another week, they claimed Pascal having been born a week prematurly. Within14 days after delivery Pascal was treated osteopathically in short times and no more restrictions in the right foot could be found.
