A member asked:
Does genuvarum treatment or surgery exist?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
YES but only if it : Is painful or causing significant disability. The most common reasons to have varus knees is secondary to knee degeneration of the inside of the knee joint. It is easily fixed with a total knee replacement. In children with severe genu varum from ricketts or similar diseases one can correct them with osteotomies or cutting of the bone to pieces and placing a rod in the femur and tibia.
