Article Synopsis
- This study examined the effectiveness of hemi-epiphysiodesis in treating adolescents with idiopathic genu varum and valgum, focusing on the impact of the distal femur and proximal tibia.
- Results showed that in the varus group, the proximal tibia contributed significantly to the deformity, while in the valgus group, both the distal femur and the proximal tibia played roles, with distal femur being more prominent.
- The findings highlight the need for tailored surgical planning based on the specific contributions of these bone areas to effectively address each condition.

Parieto-occipital encephalomalacia is a macroscopic appearance of the brain with loss of cerebral parenchyma associated with gliosis in the brain's anatomical structures. It occurs because of the liquefaction of brain parenchymal necrosis after cerebral ischemia, infection, and haemorrhages. It is often surrounded by glial cell proliferation in response to damage.
