Clubfoot is a congenital or acquired defect where one or both feet are rotated inward and downward. [1] [2] Congenital clubfoot is the most common congenital malformation of the foot with an incidence of 1 per 1000 births. [5]
Mueller–Weiss syndrome, also known as Mueller–Weiss disease, is a rare [2] idiopathic degenerative disease of the adult navicular bone characterized by progressive collapse and fragmentation, leading to mid- and hindfoot pain and deformity. [3] [1] It is most commonly seen in females, ages 40–60. [4]
Pigeon toe, also known as in-toeing, is a condition which causes the toes to point inward when walking.It is most common in infants and children under two years of age [1] and, when not the result of simple muscle weakness, [2] normally arises from underlying conditions, such as a twisted shin bone or an excessive anteversion (femoral head is more than 15° from the angle of torsion) resulting ...
Pes cavus can occur from four primary causes: neurological conditions, trauma, undertreated clubfoot, or idiopathic with other underlining conditions. [9]Bilateral presentation (i.e., in both feet) often occurs due to a hereditary or congenital source, whereas a unilateral presentation (i.e., in one foot) is often the result of trauma.
This condition is also characterized by an unusual clubfoot with twisting of the metatarsals, inward and upward-turning foot, tarsus varus and inversion adducted appearances. Furthermore, they classically present with scoliosis (progressive curvature of the spine ) and unusually positioned thumbs ( hitchhiker's thumbs ).
Other symptoms that sometimes occur with Möbius syndrome are: [citation needed] Limb abnormalities—clubbed feet, missing fingers or toes; Chest-wall abnormalities (Poland syndrome) Crossed eyes ; Difficulty in breathing and/or in swallowing; Corneal erosion resulting from difficulty in blinking

If there is polydactyly with an extra digit that is fully functional, then the digit can stay.
