Abstract
Transfer of tibialis anterior into the talus has been utilized for correction of the vertical talus, as well as for paralytic valgus foot deformities with the suggestion for its use in severe flatfoot deformities. The authors present transfer of tibialis anterior through the talus for controlling the severe planus pediatric foot. The procedure is presented, and six feet having undergone this procedure are analyzed. This procedure, in combination with others, has proven successful in reconstructing this pediatric deformity clinically and radiographically.
