In a consecutive screening of 2,401 newborn, a foot deformity was noted in 100 of the infants (4.2 percent). At follow-up 5-6 years later, the children with a foot deformity were reexamined and compared with normal controls. Seventy-six infants had some adduction deformity of the foot at birth. At reexamination, 87 percent of the examined children had normal feet. No association was observed between sleeping prone and the presence of adduction deformity at the reexamination. Pes calcaneovalgus was diagnosed in 18 newborn. Of those reexamined, all had normal feet. Up to the age of 6 years, 4.3 percent of the 2,401 had been referred to the department of orthopedics because of a foot deformity; 50 because of an adduction deformity, and in 10 of these children the deformity was observed at birth. The investigation indicates that no treatment is required for pes calcaneovalgus or adductus deformity confined to the forefoot.
在对2401名新生儿进行的连续筛查中，发现100名婴儿（4.2%）存在足部畸形。在5至6年后的随访中，对有足部畸形的儿童进行了复查，并与正常对照组进行了比较。76名婴儿出生时足部有内收畸形。复查时，87%接受检查的儿童足部正常。复查时未观察到俯卧睡眠与内收畸形的存在之间有相关性。18名新生儿被诊断为仰趾外翻足。在接受复查的患儿中，所有患儿足部均正常。到6岁时，2401名儿童中有4.3%因足部畸形被转诊至骨科；50名因内收畸形转诊，其中10名儿童在出生时就观察到了畸形。调查表明，对于局限于前足的仰趾外翻足或内收畸形无需治疗。
