AB  - Rotational  and  angular  deformities  of  the  lower  extremities  are  among  the  most  common  orthopedic  complaints  to  primary  care  providers.  Fortunately,  most  patients  have  nothing  more  than  normal  physiologic  variance,  and  the  majority  may  be  treated  with  education  and  observation.  However,  there  are  a  variety  of  uncommon,  but  significant,  orthopedic  and  neuromuscular  conditions  that  may  present  as  rotational  or  angular  deformity.  Thus,  an  understanding  of  both  anatomy  and  potential  pathologies  is  important.  Recognition  of  normal  variations  in  normal  growth  and  development  can  reduce  the  number  of  unnecessary  referrals  for  specialist  evaluation.
