Dynamic equinus with hindfoot valgus in children with hemiplegia

Highlights ► In children with hemiplegia, an equinus is described with hindfoot varus or valgus. ► The overactivity of Gastrocnemius medialis (GM) is well documented in equinus. ► We stated the prevalence of peroneus longus (PL) in relation to GM in equinovalgus. ► The overactivity of PL could be a...

Zusammenfassung:	Highlights ► In children with hemiplegia, an equinus is described with hindfoot varus or valgus. ► The overactivity of Gastrocnemius medialis (GM) is well documented in equinus. ► We stated the prevalence of peroneus longus (PL) in relation to GM in equinovalgus. ► The overactivity of PL could be a new therapeutic target in equino valgus.
