Femoral and Tibial Rotational Deformity Treated with Fixator Assisted Nailing and Gradual Correction with The Taylor Spatial Frame

A teenage boy presented with Blount disease and progressive varus deformity of the left proximal tibia with internal rotation deformityInternal rotation deformity of 35°. He also had severe femoral retroversion and no internal rotation of his left femur. The femoral deformity was corrected with fixator-assisted nailingFixator-assisted nailing (FAN). The tibial deformity was gradually corrected using the Taylor spatial frame (Smith & Nephew, Memphis, TN). Deformity correction was achieved, and the patient experienced dramatic improvement in his clinical gait.
