We studied the correlation between child's age at presentation, initial Pirani, Dimeglio scores to the number of Ponseti casts in Indian clubfoot children. Further, we matched Pirani versus Dimeglio scores at different severities of deformity to derive a correlation between them. We included 90 idiopathic clubfeet in 55 infants and scored them according to Pirani and Dimeglio grading systems. Syndromic, neurological, surgically intervened, atypical or complex clubfeet were excluded from the study. The number of casts before percutaneous tenotomy was counted. Correlations were calculated between corrective casts and age, Pirani, Dimeglio scores and their individual components. Mean age of children was 63.7 days and average number of casts applied was 3.2. Age at presentation and number of casts had no correlation with r=0.034 (p<0.001). The correlation between initial Pirani score (average 5.39) and Dimeglio score (average 13.4) to number of casts was 0.35 (p<0.001)and 0.56 (p<0.0001) respectively. Among individual components of Pirani score, medial crease and rigid equinus had maximum correlation to the number of casts whereas empty heel sign had the lowest. For Dimeglio score, equinus and varus correlated the most and posterior crease the least. Pirani and Dimeglio scores were highly correlated (r=0.87) to each other except for very supple or severe deformity. In infancy, the age at presentation had no bearing on number of casts. Both scoring systems had positive correlation in terms of corrective casts for our population. The Dimeglio fared slightly better than Pirani scores.
