No correlation has been found with the gestational age at birth, maternal age at birth or birth order. One theory is that the condition results from the fetus being tightly packed inside the uterus during development.
This could lead to abnormal posture and a foot deformity. Metatarsus adductus can be diagnosed through a physical exam. Telltale signs of this condition include the high arch and a visibly curved and separated big toe. A physician can assess the degree of metatarsus adductus by testing the range of motion of the foot.
There are two types of this condition: flexible and nonflexible. In a flexible metatarsus adductus, the foot can be straightened up manually.
Stretching exercises may be recommended in some cases of metatarsus adductus. Introduction to Congenital Craniofacial and Musculoskeletal Abnormalities. Test your knowledge. Neonatal herpes simplex virus HSV infection has a high morbidity and mortality rate. The usual presenting symptom in neonates is a vesicular eruption that appears between the 1st and 3rd week of life. There are several ways in which this disease is transmitted to the neonate. Of these modes of transmission, which of the following is the most common?
