Flat-top talus (FTT) is a complication well-known to those treating clubfoot. Despite varying anecdotal opinions, its association with different treatments, especially the Ponseti method, remains uncertain. This systematic review aimed to establish the aetiology and prevalence of FTT, as well as detailing management strategies and their efficacy. A systematic review was conducted according to PRISMA guidelines to search for articles using MEDLINE, EMBASE and Web of Science until November 2021. Studies with original data relevant to one of three questions were included: 1) Possible aetiology 2) Prevalence following different treatments 3) Management strategies and their outcomes. 32 original studies were included, with a total of 1473 clubfeet. FTT may be a pre-existing feature of the pathoanatomy of some clubfeet as well as a sequela of treatment. It can be a radiological artefact due to positioning or other residual deformity. The Ponseti method is associated with a higher percentage of radiologically normal tali (57%) than both surgical methods (52%) and non-Ponseti casting (29%). Only one study was identified that reported outcomes after surgical treatment for FTT (anterior distal tibial hemiepiphysiodesis). The cause of FTT remains unclear. It is seen after all treatment methods but the rate is lowest following Ponseti casting. Guided growth may be an effective treatment. Key words:.
