Abstract

A young adult man in 20s presented with bow leg deformity of both the knees, since childhood and bilateral knee pain for the last 4 years. Plain radiographs of both the knees confirmed bilateral genu varum deformity, more on the right side (16.2°) as compared with left (12.3°). He was managed surgically by a single-stage bilateral medial opening wedge high tibial osteotomy, using a synthetic bone substitute of a tri calcium phosphate. After the healing of osteotomies at 3 months, the patient was pain free and walked comfortably with normal lower limb alignment.
