The same clinical and radiological assessment was done at the end of treatment before putting a patient on foot abduction orthosis (FAO).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The average number of casts applied before full correction was 5.56 (range: 5\u20138). The average duration of treatment was about 6.65 weeks before the patient was put on FAO. Pirani score significantly improved from an average of 5.50 (range: 4\u20136) on presentation to 0.24 (range: 0\u20132) after correction of deformity.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The Ponseti method is an excellent method for the correction of all four deformities associated with congenital idiopathic clubfoot, and we found that the addition of radiographic to clinical evaluation helps in the better assessment of correction.
