Homage to Iowa The inside story of Ignacio V. Ponseti
Book - 2007
A biography of Igancio Ponseti, an orthopedist at the University of Iowa who developed, in the 1950s, the Ponseti Method (also known as the Ponseti Technique), a non-surgical technique that uses a series of casts, followed by a brace, to correct congenital clubfoot. The condition causes a baby's feet to turn inward and downward; if not corrected, a child is unable to walk or move properly.
