Ponseti Method Spearheads Global Clubfoot Training
The Ponseti method, developed by Ignacio Ponseti from Menorca, is taught worldwide using plastic models to train doctors. Paul Etre notes parents seek out Ponseti after reading about his approach, with early patients still racing in annual Ponseti Clubfoot Races. Ponseti arrived at Iowa in 1941 and began the method circa 1948 as a non surgical alternative, living in Iowa City and enjoying his garden at home. His wife Helena Percas-Ponseti released a second printing of Homage to Iowa: The Inside Story of Ignacio Ponseti.
