Guest guest Posted October 13, 2005 Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 Here is a recent article about Dr Pirani and his work bringing the Ponseti method to Uganda. It tells a nice story. It does, however, make it sound like the rationale behind using the Ponseti method in developing countries might have more to do with how few surgeons are there than that it out-and-out reduces the need for surgery in the first place. http://www.medicalpost.com/mpcontent/article.jsp?content=20051012_194938_1176 Naomi The Family Naomi Hannah(02/21/01) Jonah(06/20/03, corrected bilateral clubfoot, FAB 14/7) --------------------------------- Yahoo!
