Blount's disease occurs in children with no apparent abnormality at birth, having a typical history of "genu varum" worsening with gait before the age of 2 years. The less frequent juvenile onset may occur between 4 and 10 years and the adolescent form over 11 years.... Blount's disease is believed to result from abnormal compression of the medial aspect of the proximal tibial physes, causing retardation of growth in that area or increased growth laterally of the proximal tibia or fibula... In juvenile Blount's disease, the etiology is less clear and may relate more to malalignment, leading to the characteristic changes visible on radiographs.  3, record 1, English, - juvenile%20Blount%27s%20disease

La capsule interne est une importante voie de conduction, dans laquelle cheminent de nombreuses voies de projection. Dans une coupe horizontale, la capsule interne présente un angle ouvert latéralement (genou = genou de la capsule interne) auquel aboutissent deux bras (bras antérieur et bras postérieur). Dans ces trois parties passent de nombreuses fibres ascendantes et descendantes […] Le bras antérieur est limité par la tête du noyau caudé, le pallidum et le putamen; le bras postérieur, par le thalamus, le pallidum et le putamen.  1, record 2, French, - bras%20ant%C3%A9rieur

Genu valgum is the Latin-derived term used to describe knock-knee deformity. While many otherwise healthy children have knock-knee deformity as a passing trait, some individuals retain or develop this deformity due to hereditary or genetic disorders or metabolic bone disease. The typical gait pattern is circumduction, requiring that the individual swing each leg outward while walking in order to take a step without striking the planted limb with the moving limb. Not only are the mechanics of gait compromised but also, with significant angular deformity, anterior and medial knee pain are common.  2, record 6, English, - genu%20valgum
