Weight and Infantile Blount Disease: Insights from a Rural Ghanaian Cohort.
Blount disease is growth disorder of the proximal tibia, resulting in genu varum, internal rotation, and procurvatum. Three different forms of the condition are described: infantile, or early onset, juvenile onset, and adolescent or late onset. Although several hypotheses exist, the etiology of Blount disease remains unknown. The best-founded hypothesis is the "increased mechanical force hypothesis". In particular, the relation between obesity and Blount disease. Although, most studies supporting this hypothesis are conducted in high income countries. However, unlike in the Western population that was studied to establish this hypothesis, Blount disease is relatively common in African countries and obesity is not. This study is a retrospective, case control study in a rural hospital in Ghana (2012-2021). Demographic information, body weight, and age at presentation were collected. The World Health Organization (WHO) weight-for-age growth standard was used. Overweight was defined as a percentile between 85th and 97th. Obese as a percentile between 97th and 99th. Above the 99th percentile was defined as severely obese. In total 96 patients with infantile Blount disease were included, all of black Ghanaian descent. The mean age of onset of Blount disease in our patients was 1.7 (±0.9) years, and the mean age at presentation was 6.3 (±3.4) years. This was not different between boys (n = 27) and girls (n = 69). The mean weight for age percentile in our population was 56.8th (±35.3th), and 68% was of normal weight, 15% overweight, 8% obese, and 9% severely obese. Our study population had a significant (p < 0.05) higher mean weight percentile compared with the local control group (n = 79, 37.0th ± 26.0th). Although our study population of patients with infantile Blount was significantly heavier compared with the control group, the mean weight (56.8th ± 35.3th) was well within normal values. Obesity might have a role in the development of infantile Blount disease, but it is shown to be not as an important factor in the Ghanaian population (18% obese) compared with the more extensively studied US population with much higher obesity rates.

Percutaneous Transphyseal Screw Hemiepiphysiodesis (PETS) for Tibia Vara in Blount's Disease.
Blount's disease is a progressive developmental disorder causing pathologic genu varum due to growth disturbances in the medial proximal tibial physis. Guided growth is a primary treatment, but established methods like staples and 8-plates have limitations, including hardware failure and unpredictable correction. This study evaluates an alternative technique of hemiepiphysiodesis using percutaneous transphyseal screws (PETS) for treating juvenile and adolescent Blount's disease. This prospective case series included 61 patients (80 knees) aged 4 to 12 years treated for Blount's disease at a single institution. All patients underwent lateral proximal tibial hemiepiphysiodesis with a single, fully threaded cannulated screw. The primary outcome was the change in Mechanical Axis Deviation (MAD). Secondary outcomes included changes in the Medial Proximal Tibial Angle (MPTA), rate of correction, functional outcomes measured by the Böstman knee score, and complications. The mean preoperative MAD was 44 mm. It improved to a mean of 0.7 mm at implant removal, representing a mean correction of 43 mm ( P <0.001). The mean rate of correction was 3.7 mm per month. The mean MPTA improved from 77 to 86 degrees. The mean postoperative Böstman score was 29, indicating excellent functional recovery. Complications were minimal, with a reoperation rate of 9.8% and a rebound deformity rate of 3.3%. No cases of overcorrection, hardware failure, or deep infection were observed. PETS is a safe, effective, and rapid method for correcting tibia vara in juvenile and adolescent Blount's disease. It provides predictable alignment correction with a low complication profile, representing a strong alternative to other guided growth techniques. Level IV.
The Outcomes of Guided Growth System in Juvenile and Adolescent Patients With Blount Disease.
Guided growth offers a less invasive option for the treatment of Blount disease. Previous studies have found guided growth to be much less successful for individuals with more severe mechanical axis deviation (MAD). This study aims to assess the effectiveness and safety of guided growth systems for treating Blount disease in juvenile and adolescent patients with particular attention to patients presenting with severe deformities. Patients were included if greater than 4 years of age and had undergone guided growth from January 2005 to September 2023. Treatment success was defined as final correction to MAD zone -1, 0, or +1 using only guided growth. Failure was defined as individuals who did not achieve correction to the above zones or those requiring osteotomy. Odds ratios were calculated for failure in patients with initial presentation in MAD zones -3 and -4. To further analyze our results, we also compared the treatment success rate of the 4-screw construct versus 2-screw construct, both of which are used at our institution. A total of 32 patients with 44 extremities were included in this study: 13 patients (41%) in the juvenile group, and 19 patients (59%) in the adolescent group. Overall, successful correction to MAD -1, 0, and +1 was 61%. Factors associated with failure were mean BMI 40.3 (±8.8) versus 33.5 (±9.3), ( P =0.034). The odds ratio of zone -3 and zone -4 deformity treatment failure were 1.64 (95% CI: 0.48-5.56) and 1.78 (95% CI: 0.51-6.17), respectively. The relative risk of 4-screw plate construct for treatment failure was 0.5 (95% CI: 0.21-1.19) while 2-screw plate construct carried a relative risk of 4.5 (95% CI: 0.579-35.6) for mechanical implant failure. Our research demonstrates that moderate and severe varus deformity (zone -3 and -4) in children with Blount disease can be successfully treated by tension band plating, though the failure rate still remains high.

Acute medial tibial plateau elevation with gradual metaphyseal correction using an Ilizarov fixator for late-presenting infantile Langenskiold stage V and VI Blount's disease. Short-term results.
Correcting severe deformities associated with advanced stages of Blount's disease in adolescents varies in the literature between acute and gradual corrections. We aimed to report the early results (radiological and complications) of performing acute medial tibial plateau elevation combined with gradually correcting the metaphyseal deformity using an Illizarov external fixator in adolescents with late-presenting infantile Langenskiold stage V and VI Blount's disease. A prospective case series of 24 patients (24 limbs) with Langenskiold stage V and VI Blount's disease having a mean age of 11.63 ± 1.74 years were included. The radiological outcomes included hip-knee-ankle (HKA) angle, medial proximal tibial angle (MPTA), joint line convergence angle (JLCA), Posterior proximal tibial angle (PPTA), and medial tibial plateau depression angle (MTPDA). Complications at any time point were reported. The Illizarov frame was removed after a mean of 14 ± 2.04 weeks postoperatively. After a mean follow up of 23.33 ± 9.43 months, all the radiological outcomes improved significantly (< 0.001) compared to preoperative values, HKA: 182.17 ± 1.97 vs. 148.29 ± 9.88, MPTA:88.0 (87.0-90.0) vs. 75.5 (70.0-80.0), PPTA 82.0 ± 1.82 vs. 67.67 ± 5.02, JLCA: 2.46 ± 1.77 vs. 19.92 ± 2.75, and MTPDA: 1.96 ± 2.07 vs. 50.08 ± 7.19. No cases of neurovascular complications. The pin tract infection rate was 62.5%, and all were treated conservatively. Varus deformity recurred in 5 (20.8%) patients, all at the metaphyseal level, with no collapse at the elevated medial tibial plateau. Significant Leg length discrepancy (> 2 cm) was encountered in 6 (25%) patients (five were patients with recurrent varus deformities, where the LLD was compensated after deformity correction). The management protocol we adopted, which entailed acute elevation of the medial tibial plateau depression combined with gradual correction of the proximal tibial deformity assisted by the Illizarov external fixator, provided promising results regarding its safety, ability of full deformity correction, and acceptable recurrence incidence.

Determinants of Surgical Response to Lateral Tibial Hemiepiphysiodesis in Idiopathic and Non-Idiopathic Genu Varum: Real-World Evidence from a Tertiary Pediatric Cohort.
Background: Lateral tibial hemiepiphysiodesis with tension band plates is an established method for correcting genu varum in skeletally immature patients. However, outcomes may vary depending on underlying pathology and patient characteristics. Methods: This retrospective cohort study evaluated 31 patients (53 knees) treated between 2011 and 2024 at a tertiary pediatric orthopedic center. Patients were categorized as idiopathic or non-idioathic genu varum based on diagnosis. Inclusion criteria required open physes, absence of previous or concomitant knee surgeries for alignment correction, and availability of standardized long-standing radiographs. Radiographic parameters, including mechanical axis deviation (MAD), hip-knee-ankle angle (HKA), and medial proximal tibial angle (MPTA), were assessed pre-operatively and at implant removal. Outcomes were classified as complete correction, partial correction, absent correction, overcorrection, or progression of deformity. Results: Overall, 64.2% of knees achieved complete correction. Success was significantly higher in idiopathic cases (82.1%) than in non-idiopathic deformities (44%). Success was also more frequent in males (p = 0.040). In multivariable analysis, non-idiopathic patients (β = 351.9; p = 0.002), HKA improvement (β = 1.4; p = 0.010) and change in BMI z-score (β = 202.4; p = 0.009) independently predicted surgical success. No major complications (Clavien-Dindo-Sink grade > 2) were observed. Conclusions: Lateral tibial hemiepiphysiodesis is effective for idiopathic genu varum, offering minimally invasive correction with low complication rates. However, outcomes in non-idiopathic deformities are less predictable, emphasizing the need for individualized treatment planning and counseling. Early intervention, careful implant positioning, and rigorous follow-up are essential to optimize results and prevent unintended overcorrection.
