The authors have reviewed two cases of important and idiopathic deformity in children coming from Africa. In the third year of life, a valgus deformity of a knee occurs spontaneously and increases rapidly in a previously healthy child. Varus deformity of the other knee follows but seems to be just a mechanical consequence of the valgus deformity. The pathological lesions observed radiologically concern mainly the metaphyseses. General skeletal or metabolic disease, malnutrition or sickle-cell disease are not found.
作者回顾了两例来自非洲儿童的严重特发性畸形病例。在三岁时，一名此前健康的儿童膝关节自发出现外翻畸形，并迅速加重。随后另一个膝关节出现内翻畸形，但似乎只是外翻畸形的机械性后果。影像学观察到的病理病变主要累及干骺端。未发现全身性骨骼或代谢性疾病、营养不良或镰状细胞病。
