Introduction

We report 3 cases from different centres of infantile tibia vara in which the deformity was due to slippage of the proximal tibial epiphysis on the metaphysis; the aim of this study was to define the features of this previously unreported condition, and their implications for management.

Method

Three cases of tibia vara secondary to atraumatic slippage of the upper tibial epiphysis on the metaphysis were identified from three different centres. The case notes and imaging studies were retrospectively reviewed to distinguish common clinical and radiographic features.
