    my 10yr old neice has had spinal surgery for Spondilolisthesis 7 months ago. post op she is unable to dorsiflex, supinate or pronate both feet. She does have some plantar flexion. Is it possible to do a tibial tendon transfer or a nerve transfer to provide her with some degree of dorsiflexion? She has just seen a neuroligist from Bristol who is going to discuss options, but I would like to enquire if anyone knows who or what treatment might be available for her. England would be preferable but if there is something on offer abroad then she may be prepared to travel.
    All help would be appreciated.
