Fig. (3).

Radiographic findings of a patient with severe cavovarus foot. A standing lateral view (A) shows a plantar flexed 1^st ray, elevated navicular height, depressed 5^th metatarsal base, and claw toe deformities. Exact Meary angle can not be measured due to severe tilting of the talus. The posterior facet of the subtalar joint as well as the Chopart joints are clearly viewed in this lateral radiograph due to rotation of the hindfoot. The distal fibular is enlarged and posteriorly located. Secondary osteoarthritis of the ankle joint is noted. A heel-alignment view (B) confirms the degree of heel varus. From the dorsoplantar foot X-ray, the metatarsals are adducted and the 1^st metatarsal appears short due to plantar flexion.
