RESUMEN

Purpose: Foot deformities are prevalent in children with cerebral palsy, but there is limited research on the progression of foot posture during growth. Our study aimed to evaluate the change in dynamic foot posture in children with cerebral palsy. Methods: Children with cerebral palsy, aged 17-40 months, were recruited to participate in this Institutional Review Board-approved prospective longitudinal study by having serial foot posture evaluations. The coronal plane index and foot segmental impulses were measured with dynamic pedobarography. Data were compared between children stratified by Gross Motor Function Classification System level and typically developing children using serial Welch's t-tests across time with Holm correction for multiple comparisons. Results: In total, 33 children (54 limbs) were included in the analysis (21 bilateral and 12 unilateral; Gross Motor Function Classification System: I-13, II-14, III-4, IV-2. Children completed 16.9 (± 4.4) evaluations (initial age 2.9 (± 0.7) and final age 18.6 (± 1.7) years)). Early valgus foot posture normalizes in children at Gross Motor Function Classification System levels I/II and persists in children at levels III/IV who do not have foot surgery. For most young children, foot posture development is variable. Conclusion: Foot posture in young children with cerebral palsy begins in valgus and tends to normalize in youth who walk without an assistive device. Conservative management of foot deformity is recommended in early childhood. Level of evidence: Level II, prognostic study.
