'Windswept deformity'.

O O Oni, H Keswani, M O Aganga.   

Abstract

We describe 8 children with 'windswept deformity'--a valgus deformity of 1 knee in association with a varus deformity of the other. The disease is a physeal osteochondrosis and conservative treatment with serial corrective plaster casts is as effective as corrective osteotomies.
