Evaluation of Percutaneous Cryoneurotomy Compared to Surgical Open Neurotomy for the Management of Equinovarus Foot Deformity in Patients With Refractory Lower Limb Spasticity After Stroke: a Multicenter, Randomized Controlled, Non-inferiority Trial
CRYOSTROKE study is designed : * to compare the efficacy and safety of percutaneous CryoNeurotomie (CN) versus surgical neurotomy (SN) on spasticity, 90 days after intervention, in post-stroke patients presenting with spastic equinovarus foot and, * to ensure that potential clinical effect/safety remain stable within time, with a 12-month follow-up.

• Patient eligible for surgical neurotomy for varus equinus foot.
• Patient presenting no cognitive impairment or major depression (Mini Mental State Examination\>20, Hospital Anxiety and Depression (HAD\<11)).
