Lateral radiograph of the patient in Figure 1, demonstrating the proximal posterior tibial angle (PPTA), a sagittal plane deformity parameter.



Scatterplot of the regression analysis, illustrating the relationship of body mass index (BMI) and mechanical axis deviation (MAD) in the patients with the early-onset form of Blount disease.
