Surgical management of rheumatic feet has dramatically changed over the last decades influenced by the development of new pharmacological drugs and tissue-preserving surgical procedures. It has switched from joint resection to joint-sparing procedures as the method of choice. Nevertheless, the surgical interventions commonly used for non-rheumatic patients cannot be applied to rheumatic patients without reflection: in addition to the basic treatment, comorbidities, degree of mobilization of the patient, orthopedic shoe engineering and orthotic treatment play a major role. Due to the decreasing incidence of the classical rheumatic foot, it has become even more important for physicians, physiotherapists and ergotherapists to recognize the development of such a disease as early as possible and immediately start the appropriate treatment.
