Newborn Musculoskeletal System
Resiliency – prevent injury Birth process Walking
Long bones – porous Injury – bend, buckle, or break Epiphyseal plates

Talipes Equinovarus (Clubfoot)
Adduction and supination of forefoot with an inversion (varus) of the heel and fixed plantar flexion and the midfoot directs downward (equinus).

B. Shorten the limb on the affected side
C. Maintain the femur within the acetabulum
D. Provide outward displacement of the femoral head.
