Excerpt from The Use of Traction in the Treatment of Club-Foot: With a Consideration of Some of the Mechanical Points Involved, and a Description of the Antero-Posterior and Lateral Traction Apparatus

It has a purely lateral action, the hinge being placed at or near the malleolus, and the force is applied to the concave side of the deformity, pushing the entire foot toward the normal position.
