    Blount

    Area of Science:

    • Orthopedics
    • Radiology
    • Pediatric Orthopedics

    Background:

    • Blount's disease, also known as tibia varum, is a developmental disorder affecting the proximal tibia.
    • Early diagnosis and understanding of disease progression are crucial for effective management.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe the radiological features of Blount's disease in Antilles patients.
    • To propose a staging classification based on radiological modifications during growth.
    • To evaluate the impact of surgical intervention at specific disease stages.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective analysis of radiological findings in 16 patients with Blount's disease.
    • Development of a six-stage classification system based on observed radiological changes.
    • Assessment of arthrography results and associated pathologies.

    Main Results:

    • A six-stage classification for Blount's disease progression during growth was established.
    • Stage IV is identified as a critical point due to spontaneous internal epiphysiodesis.
    • Corrective osteotomy performed at Stage IV consistently resulted in tibia varum recurrence.

    Conclusions:

    • The proposed radiological staging provides a framework for understanding Blount's disease progression.
    • Intervention at Stage IV, characterized by spontaneous epiphysiodesis, is associated with high recurrence rates after corrective osteotomy.
    • Arthrography findings and associated conditions are important considerations in management.
