This revealed that the keystone in the system is the knee, in which flexion deformity or recurvatum associated with varus or valgus and torsional deformity of the femur and tibia leads to repercussions in the foot which are reasonably predictable and constant. This contrasts with similar situations in non-neurological deformities, where repercussions in the foot are unpredictable.
