"Damit waren ohne Probleme 10° DE zu erreichen. Heute Umgipsen in US-Casts geschlossen zu Mobilisation, insgesamt Korrektur auf 15° DE"

First thought of Dehnungseinheiten, but that does not appear to be measured in degrees. The solution is probably staring me in the face, unfortunately I am not seeing it.
TIA for your help.

Der Spitzfuß
Das heißt auch, das die sogenannte Dorsalextension des Fußes (Anziehen des Fußes zum Körper) vermindert ist.

Anschließend erfolgt für weitere 3 Wochen die Anlage eines Oberschenkelgipses in maximal möglicher Korrekturstellung mit ca. 60–70° Abduktion/Außenrotation und 15–20° Dorsalextension.
