Abstract

We analyze the incidence, etiology, outcome of pregnancy and therapeutic regimes of prenatally and postnatally detected isolated and complex congenital talipes equinovarus in a tertiary referral center. We included fetuses with at least one prenatal ultrasound examination conducted by a sub-specialized practitioner for prenatal medicine. Retrospective evaluation was made of prenatal, obstetrical and neonatal/pediatric records and where applicable pathological records or records of the involved department of pediatric surgery with a minimum follow-up of 24 months. 106 children with uni- or bilateral CTEV were detected prenatally in a period of 17 years. There were 55 liveborn infants. The majority of the liveborn infants had isolated CTEV (37/55), whereas in the group of the stillborns most of the individuals suffered from complex CTEV (46/51). The gender-distribution showed a majority of male individuals in the liveborn group with isolated CTEV 22/37 and 11/18 in fetuses with non-isolated CTEV. Accordingly, 2/5 fetuses with isolated CTEV and 25/46 with complex CTEV in the group of the terminated pregnancies were males. 33/49 children were treated in a conservative manner, 16/49 needed additional surgery on the CTEV.
