Dr. MatÃas Sepúlveda Oviedo shows different examples of completed casts.
The natural history of the tibia is to externally rotate with growth. This corrects the common internal tibial torsion. However, external tibial torsion often becomes greater during mid and late childhood. Sometimes it becomes severe and requires operative correction. Make correction in the distal tibia. Unilateral external tibial torsion is usually on the right side.
Dr. Klane White, MD covers the general aspects of femoroacetabular impingement with images and illustrations.
