Dwyer osteotomy for treatment of calcaneal varus.

Treatment of varus deformity of the rearfoot is satisfactorily corrected with a lateral closing wedge osteotomy of the calcaneus. Whether the condition being treated is club foot, pes cavus deformity, or calcaneal varus alone, statistics show the varus component is consistently resolved with this osteotomy approach. A case report of calcaneal varus is presented, including a postoperative complication with resolution.
