Purpose. Angular deformity in the lower extremities can result in pain, gait disturbance, cosmetic deformity and joint degeneration. Up until the introduction of guided growth in 2007, which has since become the gold standard, treatment for correcting angular deformities in skeletally immature patients had been either an osteotomy, a hemiepiphysiodesis, or the use of staples. Methods. We reviewed the surgical records and diagnostic imaging in our childrens hospital to identify all patients who had guided growth surgery since 2007. All patients were followed until skeletal maturity or until their metalwork was removed. Results. 113 patients, with 147 legs were assessed for eligibility. Three were excluded for various reasons including inadequate follow-up or loss of records. Of the 144 treated legs which met the criteria for final assessment 32 (22.2%) were unsuccessful, the other 112 (77.8%) were deemed successful at final follow up. Complications were few, but included infection in one case and metal failure in another. Those with a pre-treatment diagnosis of idiopathic genu valgum/genu varum had a success rate of 83.6%. Conclusions. In our hands, guided growth had a seventy-eight percent success rate when all diagnosis were considered. Those procedures that were unlikely to be successful included growth disturbances due to mucopolysaccharide storage disease (28% failure rate), Blounts disease (66.6% failure rate) and achondroplasia (37.5% failure rate). If you exclude those three diagnoses, success rate for all other conditions was 81.4%. We continue to advocate the use of guided growth as a successful treatment option for skeletally immature patients with limb deformity
