In correcting foot deformities the author observed a constant relationship between the forefoot and the hindfoot. If the forefoot is adducted, the heel automatically goes into the varus position. On the other hand, abduction of the forefoot will result in a valgus position of the heel. This rule was investigared and validified by experiments on cadavers: it was shown that the position of the hindfoot is automatically normalized by the correction of the forefoot. Our observations have been confirmed by treating foot deformities in children and adults. Therefore we believe that surgery of the talo-calcaneal joint in cases of foot deformity is unnecessary.
在矫正足部畸形时，作者观察到前足与后足之间存在一种恒定的关系。如果前足内收，足跟会自动进入内翻位。另一方面，前足外展将导致足跟外翻。这一规律已通过对尸体的实验进行了研究和验证：结果表明，前足畸形矫正后，后足的位置会自动恢复正常。我们对儿童和成人足部畸形的治疗证实了我们的观察结果。因此，我们认为在足部畸形病例中，距下关节手术是不必要的。
