The dynamic coleman block test: a novel examination technique for cavo-varus feet
Year: 2014
Type: article
Abstract: A dynamic modification of the Coleman Block Test is described. This manoeuvre can be used to complement established techniques to evaluate the contribution of tendo-achilles tightness to hind foot varus in cavo-varus deformity. This helps the surgeon determine if gastrocnemius recession is likely to be required to achieve a balanced neutral hind foot.
