Bilateral genu valgus secondary to mixed gonadal dysgenesis

The case report of a patient who manifested uncommon somatic features of mixed gonadal dysgenesis - asymmetric neckwebbing, tall stature and genu valgi. The knee problem was managed by the fusion of the knee physes both medically and surgically. The timing of surgical treatment (epiphysiodesis) was important. This was done when closure of all the physes were observed. With the cessation of maldirected growth, realignment of the femur by supracondylar osteotomy could now be done without fear of recurrence of the deformity
