Planovalgus deformity is a postural deformity, flat foot typology, very frequent in people with cerebral palsy and often due to muscle imbalance resulting in a predominance of the pronotory versus the supinatory forces. __TOC__ Treatment Surgical treatment in the presence of planovalgus deformity can be of two types: A. Memeo, F. Donelli, Il piede piatto infantile, 2013, . Grice-Viladot technique, which is performed if the patient is over 8 years old. Dual arthrodesis technique, which is performed if the patient is over 12 years old.
Both techniques provide for a thirty-day subsequent protection with a plastered knee-high without load.
