Abstract
The results of morphologic study of the bands dissected during the surgical interventions for congenital talipomanus are presented. Surgical material from 16 children (11 with manus vara, 5 with manus valga) was studied. The phases of cartilage metaplasia into connective tissue and subsequently into mature tendon are detected. It is suggested that congenital talipomanus can be considered as one of the variants of dyschondroplasia. The prognosis of the extremity development with the purpose of the treatment correction is given.
