The five-year follow up on a 5-year-old girl with infantile Blount disease with an epiphyseal separation of the distal femur was reported on. The results were not successful. The local pathology in this case is discussed including the epiphyseal abnormality of the distal femur.
The causes of unsatisfactory results can be mechanical derangement due to extreme varus deformity of the knee and tibia plateau deformity as well as localized epiphyseal disturbance in the distal femur.
