This condition results from a significant hindfoot varus and forefoot equinus deformity. This phenomenon comprises diverse anomalies and therapies and exhibits a prevalence of 25% within the populace. A thorough clinical evaluation is required to identify deformities in the cavovarus foot. Weight-bearing radiographs play a crucial role in identifying the apex of deformity and quantifying the required extent of correction. Cavus feet are frequently linked with neurological conditions affecting sensory and motor nerves. Identifying the optimal treatment for individual patients necessitates the performance of clinical and radiographic evaluations. Inaccurate diagnosis of a neurological disorder can lead to inappropriate surgical intervention, relapse, and inadequate reconstruction. When faced with progressive anomalies, it is crucial to implement a phased surgical protocol promptly to avoid exacerbating malalignment. Various surgical procedures have been recorded, including soft tissue releases, tendon transfers, osteotomies, and arthrodesis, which are selected based on the nature and extent of the deformity assessment findings, with the ultimate goal of reaching a foot that is both plantigrade and balanced. Due to a lack of research on this topic, the present review aims to furnish the most recent literature update on the manifestation, imaging evaluation, and optimal therapeutic interventions currently accessible for individuals afflicted with cavovarus deformities and to assist healthcare providers in selecting the most suitable therapy for paediatric patients with this condition in their routine clinical practice.</p>","PeriodicalId":48598,"journal":{"name":"Efort Open Reviews","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":4.3,"publicationDate":"2024-01-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10823571/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139404864","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It promotes the apoptosis of osteoclast-like giant cells, a secondary ossification and connective tissue formation. Given its high efficacy, denosumab is the standard treatment of unresectable or metastatic giant cell tumour of bone (GCTB) requiring morbid surgery. Neoadjuvant administration of denosumab may be justified to enable the resection of the tumour in certain cases; it should be considered, however, with caution for joint-saving surgery due to high local recurrence rates. In cases of unresectable or metastatic GCTB, however, denosumab treatment should be administered for years or even as a lifelong therapy. This poses many yet unanswered questions concerning the frequency of denosumab treatment as well as the ratio of the adverse events in the following years. Denosumab suppresses, not directly targets, the neoplastic stromal cells of GCTB. Ongoing in vitro studies suggest that other drugs alone or in combination (e.g. sunitinib) with denosumab may target both the neoplastic and the giant cells. Promising results have been reported regarding the off-label use of denosumab in other giant cell-rich tumours/tumour-like lesions, i.e. aneurysmal bone cysts and central giant cell granulomas. Data are derived, however, mostly from case reports and case series.
