Area of Science:

  • Orthopedics
  • Pediatric Orthopedics
  • Congenital Limb Differences

Background:

  • Congenital longitudinal deficiency of the fibula is a rare skeletal malformation.
  • Accurate classification is crucial for understanding disease patterns and treatment planning.

Observation:

  • Three pediatric cases of congenital longitudinal deficiency of the fibula were identified.
  • Detailed clinical and radiographic assessments were performed for each case.

Findings:

  • Two cases were classified as Type IB, characterized by partial fibular absence.
  • One case was classified as Type II, indicating complete fibular aplasia.

Implications:

  • These findings contribute to the understanding of fibular deficiency prevalence and classification.
  • Further research can refine diagnostic criteria and therapeutic strategies for affected individuals.
