Exactly my thought. I know someone whose own was even worst when she was little, but when I saw her of recent, the legs are all strengthened out. I don't know why they hurriedly operated on the guy.

nairaland is like a toilet built by seun, where different people(members) come with a mask to poo. The moderators are poo caretakers and the guests, flies. Unfortunately, many members fight on top poo
Hmm toilet you said, this guy has built what he will eat for the rest of his life,it's these dummies who fight and curse each other I pity, with their low life,while seun makes his cool cash.

This is pathological bow leg, the condition is called Blount disease. The legs will never get better or normalise.

Google is your friend, just do some searching and stop making fool of yourself.

This one is different. It is not ricket disease. His lower leg is not concave. That is from the knee down. The tibia (lower leg) is straight but angled in.

He does not have bow legs but inclined lower legs. Look at it from the point of view that the leg is made up of two long weightbearing bones (femur and tibia) and fibula.

Femur is normally angled in about 15degrees at the hip while normal tibia at the knee joint is straight. Held in place by network of ligaments.

The growth plate had some deformity, creating problem with alignment.

Growth plate is that part of the bone in growing kids that has become the standard for measuring age using MRI. As we grow, we loose them by minerilazation.

This boy might still need another surgery because he is still growing.

He has passed the age where it can straighten on its own. This is the best intervention. Once a child passes three years and it doesn't straighten, the parent should start watching well.

Thank you for these. I know I have seen a kid whose leg was worse just leg ever. But as he grew, the leg straightened out so that no one will ever know he was like that

Surgeons in the house. How was this procedure done, cut and join?

The surgeons did a good job and the legs will improve as he grows. This was severe genu varus deformity. In his own case this may not be a problem of vitamin D metabolism causing rickets but looks to me like faulty ossification due to pseudo achondroplasia. Although we cannot see the lower end of femur in the post operative picture , complex osteotomy must have been performed in stages. He must have had plaster casts and a long stay in hospital and a number of alternating operations and immobilization.
With such severe deviation of the mechanical axis far beyond the medial quadrant of the knees , this operation came a little late but many clinical problems have been averted. Congratulations to patient and to the surgeons.
