Abstract

Evaluate the prevalence of congenital foot deformities in Brazil, as well as their epidemiological profile during the period of 2012 to 2022 and their impacts. This is a research conducted through secondary data analysis and cross-sectional typology in the databases of the Ministry of Health - Health Information (TABNET), made available by the Department of Informatics of the Unified Health System (DATASUS). Descriptors in health sciences: "deformidade do pé" and "foot deformities". A total of 55,472 cases of congenital foot deformities were registered in Brazil. The Southeast region had the highest prevalence with 43.1% of the cases. 57.3% of the cases were diagnosed by the age of 10 years old. The epidemiological profile of congenital foot deformities reveals risk factors to which a certain population is exposed, such as teratogenic agents.
