intoeing bow legs are commonly presented paediatric problems.Parents are very worried about it.As presented very detailed overhere that these are usually phusiological and improved with time.Only few cases may need intervention ranging from bracing medications to surgical intervention.This lecture is very simple besides physicain this lecture can be used to teach parents to counsel them.The presenter of this lecture presented all tge concepts very simple and easy to understand.Sludes were attractive with photographs and relevant xrays.I think this is the most useful presentation of this series.I strongly recommend this lecture to all the paediatric orthopaedic surgeons as well as residents to know and treat this common problems of children.
