Both feet of 441 normal subjects, who ranged in age from one to eighty years, were studied to document the configuration of the longitudinal arch. The findings showed that flat feet are usual in infants, common in children, and within the normal range of the observations made in adult feet. Documentation and observation is the recommended management of the flexible flat foot that falls within the normal range.
对441名年龄从1岁到80岁的正常受试者的双脚进行了研究，以记录足纵弓的形态。研究结果表明，扁平足在婴儿中很常见，在儿童中较为普遍，且在成人足部观察的正常范围内。对于处于正常范围内的柔性扁平足，建议采用记录和观察的管理方法。
