Except four cases, all operations were done in just one surgical prodecure. Patients were aged between four and twelve years and ten cases were bilateral. The results of follow-up for to seven are presented. 11 cases were excellent (33.3%), 10 cases good. (30.1%), 10 cases fair (30.3%) and 2 cases bad (6.1%). The causes which worsen the prognosis were found to be: realization of the osteotomy at a higher level, insufficient displacement, excessive medialisation in one case and deep infection in one case. The results were better in older children and in bilateral cases.}, number={1}, publisher={Turkish Association of Orthopaedics and Traumatology}
