Sumario:The aim of this study was to investigate the modification of gait kinematics before and after orthotic treatment in patients with ITV. Vicon instrumented gait analysis was performed on three patients with ITV, pre and post treatment. Orthoses were applied a total of eighteen participants with ITV who were 25–38 months. 34 extremities were treated and radiographic evidence evaluated before and after orthotic treatment. Treatment duration for orthotic treatment ranged between 11 and 41 (25.9 ± 10.0) months. Only three patients were evaluated in gait analysis due to application difficulties. Three patients kinematic and kinetic instrumented gait analysis were found flatfoot, varus and internal rotation of the foot, hip flexion and external rotation. Study were reported an improvement in gait kinematics after orthotic treatment, in patients with ITV.
