摘要
This editorial discusses the significant findings and implications of the study conducted by Alomran et al. This retrospective study, soon to be published, provides valuable insights into the epidemiology of and risk factors associated with clubfoot in a specific Saudi population. By highlighting the study's key outcomes and discussing its broader implications for public health and clinical practices, this editorial aims to underscore the importance of continued research and targeted interventions in addressing congenital deformities such as clubfoot.
