| 1. | Pes cavus is also evident in people without neuropathy or other neurological deficit.
|
| 2. | Also, a significant chance of developing pes planus or pes cavus exists.
|
| 3. | The cause and deforming mechanism underlying pes cavus is complex and not well understood.
|
| 4. | By adulthood, Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease can cause painful foot deformities such as pes cavus.
|
| 5. | Individuals with pes cavus frequently report foot pain, which can lead to a significant limitation in function.
|
| 6. | Similarly, weak dorsiflexors are overpowered by stronger plantarflexors, causing a plantarflexed first metatarsal and anterior pes cavus.
|
| 7. | There have previously been reports of an association between excessive plantar pressure and foot pathology in people with pes cavus.
|
| 8. | High arched feet ( pes cavus ) or flat arched feet ( pes planus ) are classically associated with the disorder.
|
| 9. | People with pes cavus sometimes though not always have difficulty finding shoes that fit and may require support in their shoes.
|
| 10. | Radiological analysis of pes cavus in Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease shows the forefoot is typically plantarflexed in relation to the rearfoot.
