<p>Apparatus for treating tibial torsion in children without twisting the femur or hip and which is adjustable to accommodate the growth of the child's leg comprises a first orthosis (10) which embraces the tibia and the foot, and a second orthosis (12) embracing the upper end of the tibia and the femur with the knee in flexed position. The tibial portion of the second orthosis (12) overlaps the tibial portion of the first orthosis (10) and the overlapping portions are surfaced with fasteners such as Velcro for adjustably locking the two braces against rotation. <IMAGE></p> |
