Abstract
Cavovarus deformities of both feet in 28 years old female patient with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease were treated by one-staged pantalar arthrodesis. Excellent results were achieved at 6 years after surgery. She could walk without brace or stick and she was satisfied with the result of one-staged pantalar arthrodesis. One-stage pantalar arthrodesis is an effective method of treatment for cavovarus deformity of foot in Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease.
