The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has been universal and swift inits spread. As orthopaedic surgeons, for the most of us this timeframe has reduced ouractivity to emergency and trauma cases only, with virtual outpatient clinics and no electivesurgeries. With some of the common deformity problems including clubfoot etc, whichcomprises a large number of children in the developing world, the management has beendeferred, without any regional and national guidelines being framed.

We revisit the current scenario and the possiblemanagement protocol in the context of COVID-19 pandemic.
