The results of femoral varus osteotomy carried out in 12 patients affected with Perthes' disease were estimated. There were 9 (75per cent) good, 1 (8per cent) fair, and 2 (17per cent) poor results.
Recently, to shorten treatment period we perform varus osteotomy in the early phase and we allow patients free to bear weight in early postpoerative days.
