Valgus deformity
In orthopedics, a valgus deformity is a condition in which a bone or joint is twisted outward from the center of the body.〔(Pediatric Ankle Valgus article in MedScape )〕 The opposite deformation, where the twist is toward the center of the body, is called varus. Common causes of valgus knee in adults include arthritis of the knee and trauma.
==Terminology==
Valgus is a term for outward angulation of the distal segment of a bone or joint. The opposite condition is called Varus, which is a medial deviation of the distal bone.The terms varus and valgus always refer to the direction that the distal segment of the joint points. For a discussion of the etymology of these words, see the entry under varus.
