Growth Deformities of the Limbs:
- Discussion:
- straight-line graph based on a logarithmic scale of relative rates of
limb growth along w/ expected discrepancy at maturity;
- straight line graph also allows estimation of how epiphysiodesis will affect
the long lower limb at different ages;
- graph requires >
3 sequential measurements of bone age at 4-month intervals;
