Abstract:
Tibial opening wedge greenstick osteotomy with fibular interposition, for infantile Blount's disease (Langenskiöld II through IV) and moderate-to-severe adolescent Blount's disease, achieved intraoperative stability with accurate correction of angular, longitudinal, and rotational deformities and rapid healing in 10 patients. There were no complications.
