Technique of Ponseti casting for clubfoot correction.
A, First cast; note positioning of forefoot to align with heel, with outer edge of foot tilted even farther downward because of Achilles tendon tightness.
B, Second cast is applied with outer edge of foot still tilted downward and forefoot moved slightly outward.
C, Third cast; Achilles tendon is stretched bringing outer edge of foot into more normal position as forefoot is turned farther outward.
D, Final cast; Achilles tendon is stretched more with foot pointed upward.

The type that rides on the ineptitude of the sitting Council.
✅ Answer: CN VI (abducens nerve)
📍 Long intracranial course + fixed points make it vulnerable to stretching with ↑ICP
⚡️ Presents with lateral rectus palsy → inability to abduct + horizontal diplopia
🧠 Often an early “false localizing sign” of raised ICP
💡 Always look for papilledema and other mass effect signs
A new study on lymph node dissection for colon cancer finds that the therapeutic value of dissection varies significantly by tumor location.⚖️
The findings support dissecting lymph nodes along the feeding artery, while raising questions about the value of #253 dissection for descending colon cancer.📈
