Knock-Knee

 

This type of correction requires accurate means of predicting growth. The physicians at the International Center for Limb Lengthening at The Rubin Institute for Advanced Orthopedics have developed a new, more accurate method to predict growth of the legs and arms in children.

This adolescent had unsightly knock-knee deformity and was as a result, hampered when running. After two years, the patient's natural growth corrected the knock-knee problem.
