"bilateral gastrocnemius recession" surgery ????!


Question: My niece is having this surgery next week, I googled/Wikipedia/webmd'd it all but I keep get misc items that do not pertain this this surgery.

She has walked on her tip-toes since BIRTH and now at the age of 8 years old, they are doing this surgery to help her walk on her flat feet.

anyone have any links?

typical surgery for this condition. recovery sux...but it seems to help esp. if therapies have failed too.
no links. might look for surgeries for cerebral palsey.
