Talipes is the surgical name for the deformity commonly called clubfoot. Several varieties are distinguished: Talipes varus, in which the foot is drawn up and bent inward; Talipes valgus, in which the foot is bent outward; Talipes equinus, in which the sole faces backward and the patient walks upon the balls of the toes and Talipes calcaneus (also called talus), in which the sole faces forward and the patient walks upon the heel.
