He is subsequently noted to be unable to dorsiflex his foot. An ankle-foot-orthosis (AFO) is ordered. At a later follow-up visit, he remains unable to dorsiflex the foot despite completing a course of physical therapy. He mentions his desire to walk independently without the AFO and you suggest a tendon transfer to improve his ankle dorsiflexion.
