An observational study in Foot Deformities, sponsored by Assiut University. Not yet recruiting. Open to participants aged 12 Years to 18 Years. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2026-06-04.
Sponsored by Assiut University · Observational
The aim of the study is to determine the prevalence of foot deformities among adolescents and associated factors such as age, sex, and pain. This includes identifying the types and degrees of deformities present, assessing their impact on adolescents' health, and examining how these deformities may influence daily activities
Foot deformities are common musculoskeletal conditions affecting children and adolescents worldwide, with a wide range of causes and clinical presentations. These deformities can result from congenital abnormalities, developmental changes, trauma, neuromuscular disorders, or secondary complications of systemic diseases such as diabetes and rheumatoid arthritis(1,2). Flatfoot, hallux valgus, pes cavus, and clubfoot are among the most frequently encountered types, each with distinct etiologies and clinical features Data will be collected by self-administered structured questionnaire. The aim of the study and the way of filling the questionnaire will be explained in each classroom to the students, and then he fills the questionnaire by himself.
