Keep FF supinated(corrects cavus by aligning PF first met with other mets)
Apply lateral pressure to talar neck only. Rotate calc and forefoot around talus, talus head is fulcrum
Abduction to 70
Pt with hx of clubfoot casting presents with dynamic supination during swing phase...explain
Incomplete reduction of navi onto talar head changes TA to supinator instead of a DF
- tx with TA transfer to lateral foot
Talus and calc are parallel . A vertical talus wouldn't be parallel to the calc.
