Abstract

Infantile tibia vara (Blount's disease) is an idiopathic developmental problem, the probable cause of which is a mechanical insufficiency in thepos- teromedial part of the tibial physis. If not treated, tibial varus progresses. The deformity is usually bilateral. The type of disease seen before the age of3 years is called infantile and that, observed between 4-10 years, adolescent type. Race, sex (higher incidence in girls), early walking, obesity are considered as predisposing factors. Straightening of the leg in this postural disturbance, observed during the developmental period, can be achieved by use of corrective orthoses during activities of daily living. Eary diagnosis and orthotic treatment abolish the needfor-operative intervention. To illustrate this, the presentation of a case of an 18 months old girl who had been followed up since the early stages of the disease and who had also joint laxity was considered appropriate. The role of the rehabilitation approach and the use of orthoses ivas discussed in the light of the literature, the findings during a one year follow-up period and improvement were demonstrated.

Özet

İnfanttl Tibia Vara (Bloımt's disease) sebebi tibia fizisin posteromedialinde mekanik yetersizlik olan idiopatik gelişimsel bir problemdir. Tedavi edilmezse tibial vants ilerler. Defomite genellikle bilateraldir. Hastalığın 3 yaş öncesi gözlenen tipi in/antil, 4-10 yaş arasında gözleneni adölesan tip olarak isimlendirilir. Irk, cins (kız çocuklarında daha fazla), erken yürüme, obezite predispozan faktör olarak düşünülmüştür. Gelişme döneminde gözlenen bupostür bozukluğu günlük yaşam aktiviteleri içinde kullmlan düzeltici birortezle doğru yönde etkilenebilir. Tanının erken konulması ve ortezleme ile izlem, cerrahi girişime gerek bırakmamaktadır. Bu nedenle erken dönemde takibe alınmış, eklem lak- sisitesi degözlenm 18 aylık bir kız çocuğunun olgu olarak sunulması uygun görülmüştür. Rehabilitasyon bakışı ve ortezlemenin etkisi yayınlar çerçevesinde irdelenmiş ve bir yıllık takip bulguları ve düzelmenin seyri gösterilmiştir
